Indira gandhi declared emergency of 21 months between 1975-1977. As due to it she was granted by the president during that time,Fakruddin Ali Ahmad the authority to rule by proclamation because there were cases filed against her in the court by her election opponent. So emergency was declared and an ordinance was passed to rewrite the laws by her again as it was rather slow!

indira gandhi took emergency cause:

It began with the case against Indira Gandhi for election malpractices in Allahabad High Court. The verdict of the same was later challenged in Supreme Court which granted Gandhi a conditional stay. It allowed her to be an MP but not preside over parliamentary proceedings. This was viewed as the first step to emergency.The second step was the 'Total Revolution' initiated by Jayaprakash Narayan who demended the resignation of Indira after the Allahbad High Court gave it's verdict. it was on the same day, June 25, that JP declared the nationwide plan of daily demonstrations in every state capital.The police, army and the people were asked to follow the Constitution than Indira Gandhi. The emergency is regarded as the outcome of a systematic failure as India was facing social, economic and political crisis.
After all the reasons were put out, it was assumed that Mrs. Gandhi was blinded by power and imposed the emergency to safeguard her own political and personal interests.
