its interesting how people saw her as a dictator. how slowly she moved away from democracy. how she crushed her opponents with force. then she lost the election. got a uneducated peoples support again. won again. then turned into a dictator who crushed her opponents again. but the difference was she took it too far this time.

it showed how indira was grim and never showed emotion. she lived in her own world. she was educated (wonder if education is helping her now - in hell).

From the BBC doc, the insurgency did not have the support of the people, they goaded the troops to attack to LATER get the sympathy vote.

LOL The "insurgency" got support on the day of 13 april 1978. when the indian government funded nakli nirankari movement held a procession in amritsar, they shouted blasphemous and downright offensive slogans at the sikh gurus and the sri guru grant sahib, but when sikhs held a peaceful counterprotest, the nakli nirankaris Along the the police decided to attack them. 13 sikhs attained matyrdom. whole crowds of sikhs witnessd the atrocities. non of the nakli nirankaris whr prosecuted (seeing as the police attackd the sikhs as wel no wonder).

As for the "insurgency" goading the facist indian government to attack darbar sahib, hey, do you think the insurgency goaded the army to attack OVER FOURTY OTHER TEMPLES ACROSS PUNJAB? was sant ji at these temples as well as the darbar sahib?

what about the Sikh Reference Library, irreplaceable collection of books, manuscripts, and artifacts bearing on all aspects of Sikh history, burned to ground.

Then The day of the attack itself, on guru arjans day of matyrdom, the day when the golden temple complex would of been at its busyiest.

The media couldnt tell anyone what happend during those few weeks because they wher being rounded up and escorted out of punjab by the military.

Ther was a radio program i think its setill available on the BBC website, bluestar 20yrs on. Its good listening, also would like to add that mark tulli to sant jis speach, and realises that sant ji was not for khalistan.

Atheist, i recomend you read books about the situation, written from non-bias prospectives. Cynthia keppley mahmoods, fighting for faith and nation is a good book.

but it did show how the government did nothing as the riots happened

The goverment did something, they organised it and used the police to carry it out.

If youve listened to Mark tullis 20yrs on from bluestar, a radio program on BBC online he does an interview with some former government minister (i think). he said he had no doubt that members of the government had organised the carnage, and that he witness teams of rioters led by the police looting sikh ownd buisnesses.

on a serious note I was expecting worse....its obvious BBC bias against Sikhs espcially to do with Sikh seperatism was there but on the whole it concentrated on her life and did pick up on her role in corruption/dictorship.

Ironically she gives examples of how pakistani's were treating the west pakistan bengali's in comparison to hitler and jews yet a decade later she does exactly the same thing to the Sikh community and since operation blue star and the anti-sikh pograms she has become to the us what hitler was to the jews.

I'd like to see the BBC make a unbiased program that highlights the conditions that created seperatism like they used to do for other seperatists (Chechyna, Kashmiri, Tamil Tigers, Basque, Kurds, Tibets, Palestianian, Tajiks, Uzbekz,etc). But perhaps thats asking for too much for low quality broadcasting service.

hey jss,

there are non-amritdharis who are focusing on the negative aspects of Indira gandhi rather than the positive ones, care to step in. After all, it should be said, right?

These people are all talk, we should all take amrit before talking negative about Indira Gandhi. She was very well educated like Manmohan Singh is.

Yeh me saw the proggie last night.

I wern't surprised by either tully or kushwants comments on sant ji.

Tully is always trying to make sant ji out to be some kind of evil person who only had hate an the thing with sant ji having an evil look in his eye no.gif

An kushwant. My grandad never liked him an i always used to wonder why he used to be swearing at the tv everytime this geeza came on. Well notice how he said sant ji was just a no body an just a person from a farming family with not much. How can he say such a thing. Sant ji was a somebody and a big part in the sikh future. What happened was in 84 and from that day on and now forever sant ji will be remembered.

Have u noticed how whenever kushwant is on tv he is always wearing the exactly the same clothes. LOL.gifLOL.gifLOL.gif

    • If relationship with Guru is strong, then kanga is done twice a day, and turban should never be taken off or put on like a hat, there is a lot wrong with that as it is against rehit! maryada is to take off every layer of turban/pagh/dumalla individually, and tie fresh turban each time!
    • the whole 'your husband/wife is chosen for you'/sanjog thing is real, it's just that a lot of people end up marrying the wrong person. they did not end up with the person that was meant for them. my friend, you should marry someone who you feel a connection with and love. there are millions of sikh girls, i'm sure you can find someone who aligns with your sensibilities and who you can truthfully say that you love. sikhi does not say anything against love marriages. you can also be in a loveless arranged marriage which is a safe option b/c both families are more inclined to keep the union intact. i was one of those people who was like meh, i guess i'll just get arranged to some sikh. well i finally started dating for the first time this year and i'm getting married to someone that i love and cannot even imagine leaving. i think it's better to have lost & lost than never loved at all. unfortunately, a lot of people confuse love w/ looks & lust. a lot of men go for the fittest girl they can find and think they won the jackpot or something. in reality, your partner should be like an extremely loved best friend. there's a reason why it's a fact that the most stable and long-lasting relationships started as friendships.  i also think a lot of women are petty and divorce over small reasons, but there's other terrible things like high cheating rates as well. that's why the divorce rate in the west is high. be careful out there.
    • andrew tate praises sikhi too & likes sikhs. his brother also donated to sikh families iirc. they just like any "alpha" religion and tbh islam is the most "alpha" in their eyes. islam is very good at promoting that image. but imo a real alpha man doesn't command respect by beating up his wive(s) or forcing them to wear a burqa. a real man will have his woman listen to him w/o raising a hand or his voice, and command respect by being respectful. he leads by example and integrity. that's true masculinity. you get the idea. + yes, it's definitely true that islam is growing rapidly and making massive inroads. strength in numbers + belief will do that. but rlly it's just because of the birth rate. a lot of them are muslim b/c it's their "identity" just like how a lot of young sikhs will say they're "culturally sikh" or whatever. there just aren't billions of sikhs who lambast their identity everywhere and have strict and linear rules like in islam. besides, the reality is that islam and its followers are some of the most morally bankrupt. you can see all the weird trans rules in iran, bacche baazi in afghanistan, visiting brothels, watching p*rn, p*dophilia what goes on behind the scenes in countries like uae & qatar, etc, and come to your conclusions. you can google all the stats yourself and see which countries do the most of these ^.   
    • stop associating with hinduism, that's the absolutely worst thing you can do as a sikh. not sure if you noticed but the entire world looks down upon and spits at india & hindus, literally no one respects them and considers them weak and cowardly. literally 1+ billion of them but not perceived as a strong religion commandeering respect. 
    • you wrote a whole lot but told us nothing. what exactly did you do wrong to make you feel this way?
