The delegation demanded action against the accused. “It is the worst example of organised crime encouraged and supported by the state authorities against a particular minority community. In this unfortunate incident, more than 32 Sikhs were hacked and a gurdwara building was demolished on November 2, 1984. The site of the tragedy narrates a pathetic tale of torched houses, the burnt gurdwara,” he said. “The worst part is that the matter has been kept under wraps during the last 26 years. The Shiromani committee has stressed upon the authorities at the Centre to intervene in the matter,” he added. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
