In India, "the Emergency" refers to a 21-month period from 1975 to 1977 when Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had a state of emergency declared across the country.
Jaigarh Fort Treasure,When Emergency was imposed in 1975-76, the govt ordered a raid of all royal palaces here as a result of which this fort like many others in the state, was searched by army men.
During the Emergency, Raja Man Singh (II) represented the royal family of Jaipur. The royal family did not have cordial relations with the Indira Gandhi government. The former PM used it as an opportunity to crack down on the dissidents and the income tax department carried out several raids on the fort. After they could not find anything, the government sent the Army to march to the fort and unearth the treasure.
At the height of Emergency, Indira Gandhi in 1976 ordered the Indian Army to search for hidden treasures in Jaipur’s Jaigarh Fort. It was believed that Raja Man Singh (I) had reportedly hidden treasures from his military conquests in the fort. Legends say that Man Singh was a defense minister in Mughal emperor Akbar’s court and had invaded Afghanistan, thereby winning the war. It is believed that the ruler had hidden a huge amount of wealth in the reservoir of the fort.

Bhutto wanted a share of Jaigarh fort treasure from Indira Gandhi in 1976 Pakistan prime minister Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto in 1976 had demanded his country's share in the Jaigarh fort treasure from the then Indian prime minister Indira Gandhi, but India told Pakistan nothing was found and the treasure hunt was called off.
Is Baadshaho based on Indira Gandhi's raid on Jaigarh Fort during Emergency??
yes, Ajay Devgn and Emraan Hashmi share the screen space in Milan Luthria’s Baadshaho. Set in the backdrop of 1975 Emergency, the film revolves around a gang that robs a truck carrying gold from one city to another yet it is not all true.It reported that no tresure was found and the hunt was called off.but the movie shows the tressure was found and it is been mobilized to Delhi in the train which is not true.

The official report says that there was no tresure and the mission was called off.some report that the tressure was found and was also trasported from jaipur as the Delhi-Jaipur highway was shut for three days to make way for the military vehicles. nobody knows what actually happened to the tressure..
