1984 Delhi Sikh Genocide - 30Th Anniversary

ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕਾ ਖਾਲਸਾ, ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕੀ ਫਤਿਹ

In 1984, India exposed its true nature and feelings towards Sikhs by carrying out Sikh genocide.

Since then, hundreds of thousands of Sikhs have been slaughtered. Every day, Sikh injustice continues.

Phase 1 of State Terrorism began in June 1984 with the Genocide of Punjab and Sri Harmandir Sahib, Amritsar.

Five months later, when the Sikh bodyguards delivered justice personally to Prime Minister Mrs Gandhi, Sikh genocide against innocent Sikhs was renewed. This led to mass violence against the Sikh population in Delhi and all over India. Phase 2 began on 31st October when the government used the hindu masses to slaughter Sikhs in cold blood.

Hindu killer squads celebrate Sikh genocide.

Was Indira Gandhi a corrupt, ruthless and evil military dictator? Yes...

Indira Gandhi is most famous for her State of Emergency. On 12 June 1975 the High Court of Allahabad declared Indira Gandhi's election to the Lok Sabha void on grounds of electoral malpractice. The court thus ordered her to be removed from her seat in Parliament and banned from running in elections for six years.

Within a few months, the president's rule was imposed on the two opposition party ruled states of Gujarat and Tamil Nadu thereby bringing the entire country under direct Central rule or by governments led by the ruling Congress party. Police were granted powers to impose curfews and indefinitely detain citizens and all publications were subjected to substantial censorship by the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting.

Indira Gandhi was dictator of India for two years.

Indira Gandhi ended the emergency in 1977. She grossly misjudged her popularity by reading what the heavily censored press wrote about her and proceeded to hold elections, lost them, and was forced to step down. Indira Gandhi would later return to office.

Since 1984, the Indian state has continued to carry out extra judical killings, deny Sikh's justice, undermine Sikh institutions, subvert the Sikh youth and back anti-Sikh organisations.

An encouraging development is that more Sikhs have become aware of what happened to them. This is due to the Sikh TV and radio shoes and the social media. This is making an impact on Indian Sikhs also who have a censored Indian media.

Surinder Kaur - "I had earlier filed an affidavit before Justice Ranganath Mishra Commission of Inquiry. A photocopy of it is shown to me. It is the same affidavit which I had filed. It bears my signature. The affidavit is taken on record and marked as Exhibit No.53/1. In addition to what I have stated in my affidavit, I say that my husband Anoop Singh was killed on 1.11.1984. He was killed while he was going to his sister’s house.

My brother’s sister’s house was about 3 to 4 houses away from our house. Three other persons were also killed along with my husband. They were Kirpal Singh, Bakshish Singh and Gurmeet Singh.

In our locality there were three gallis. In all there where approximately 50 houses of sardars. All the houses were looted and burnt by the mobs.

The gurdwara was in the first gali. The mob had burnt the Gurudwara and killed the sevadar and his son who were residing in the Gurudwara. About 70 to 80 sikhs were killed in our locality. One women and three young girls were also killed."

We have hundreds of truly horrifying accounts (and will release them soon on our site, including how decades after 1984 witnesses have been threatened, beaten and bribed to change statements).

It is notable that BJP leader Lakshami Kanta Chawla had warned Badal government against Punjab Bandh. Hindutva leader had demanded that the Badal government should ensure that no disturbances are allowed in road and railway traffic.

The Punjab Bandh or Punjab shut down call was given by All India Sikh Students Federation (AISSF) and victims-survivors of the Sikh Genocide 1984 as a token protest against denial of justice to the victims of Sikh genocide 1984. The organizers of the Punjab Bandh were appealing to all sections of the society to observe shut down and show sympathy with the cause.

Amrik Singh;

I, the deponent above-named do hereby solemnly state on oath as under: -

1. On Nov.1, 1984, Rajinder Shukla with about a thousand men came to my shop. Dharam Dass Shastri, MP had ordered them to set on fire all the houses belonging to Sikhs and kill all the Sikh family including children and women, in that colony. Not one Sikh should escape. Shukla started attacking my shop after about half an hour. It was about 12 O'clock. After that the residents of the colony persuaded them not to harm innocent people. On Nov.1 itself, mob came again at night. They were shouting that it is our leader's order to kill all the Sikhs and burn their houses. They were raising slogans like, "Khoon Ka Badla Khoon Se Lengey", "All the Sikhs must leave", "Sikh's Khalistan is in Punjab", "We will not allow you to live here" etc. Rajinder Shukla accompanied with Ram Gopal, Ram Gopal’s son and other looted my electrical goods shop. They threw the account books and other documents outside and set these on fire.

2. After that the mob proceeded to Gurdwara and they threw the holy book outside, kicked and urinated upon these books. They uprooted Nishan Sahib (religious flag of Sikhs) and looted the money chest. When the mob was running and killing Sikhs, the men comprising the mob had iron rods and kerosene oil tins with them. When we saw all this we telephoned police but they refused to intervene and said that they cannot do anything because they have the orders of the superiors. We went to the police station, they refused to lodge our report. From 3.11.84 to 9.11.84 we remained in the Ludlow Castle Camp. Our report was lodged on 11.11.84. Even now the hoodlums of Dharam Dass Shastri intimidate us.

Why doesn't this make more mainstream news?

Why doesn't this make more mainstream news?

Because our gov't has been bought ... Rajiv told them they would lose contracts if they said anything back then and Now the Golden goose is again threatening to withhold the eggs if the Govt allows too much blaming in the press.

Punjab Bandh: Under pressure from Hindutva forces Badal govt. arrests Sikh activists, genocide victims

Amritsar, Punjab: ................................

While there was good response to the “Call for Bandh in Punjab” in some cities like Amritsar, Jallandar, Ludhiana, Phagwara, and few others, but most of the malwa cities like Malot, Patiala, etc response was next to none.

Even those who made statements, a day or two ago that they would support it whole heartedly and their photographs appeared in newspapers, were mysteriously absent from the scene and did nothing to support the cause. This is the state of Sikh mind set in Punjab. Who are these people ?– well you will see their pictures often making lofty speeches that they are doing this and that for this and that Sikh cause. They make statements like “ We are standing by you like a solid rock” . But when the time comes for them to show support, they are not seen and the rock suddenly disappears. This the state of commitment of Sikhs in Punjab for Sikh issues.

I'm not just talking about India, I'm talking about the mainstream media elsewhere as well.
