Rememberance Of 1984 Victims Over Delhi

[Mann-Sahib]

Hi Guys

Just came across this article on the Economist website:

Why can’t we Sikhs do this too? I think the Jewish community is brilliant at documenting their holocaust through films, books and art.

We must also do the same to ensure that future generations do not forget what happened to Sikhs and to ensure that the general public is reminded of what he government did to ensure change is implemented to prevent such tragic incidents re-occuring.

What are the thoughts of the forum members here?

Im sure the Indian government would try to stop such a project but doing so would raise the publicity of a project to install victim remembrance plaques in areas of Delhi where victims were killed.

The individual who spearheaded the project in the attached article also came up against resistance from the German government but did not give up – can we Sikhs not do something similar?

Look forward to the replies.

Majeet Singh GK - Head of DSGMC has announced construction of such a memorial in Gurudwara Rakab ganj. I believe more of such small-memorials in all local prominent Gurudwaras of Delhi such as Fateh nagar, Tilak Nagar, punjabi Bagh will be very good.

Movies - Have you seem Amu, Havayein. They are banned in India , but available on youtube.

Books- "I accuse" by Jarnal Singh Jee and lot others.

This is an excellent idea and should be promoted and actioned by all Sikh organisations.
