After that, the Allahabad High court did find her guilty, by virtue of which dismissed her immediately from the Lok Sabha.
The high court also barred her from contesting in future elections for 6 years and demanded her resignation from PM post.
The court granted her bail and allowed her to remain as Prime minister for 6 more months within which the said case would be completed, yet refused to reinstate her as a member of Parliament.
Facing certain doom if the case went on in the supreme court as before, Indira Gandhi successfully recommended to the President to declare a state of emergency the next night and began her rule by decree.
During this time, Indira Gandhi pushed for the 39th Amendment Act to secure her position and prevent her removal from Indian politics.
