Untold story of 1984-Anti Sikh Riots

Recent controversy cropping out of Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi's statement regarding anti Sikh riots of 1984 is a sign of political immaturity. It is unfortunate also because time and again Indian politicians have the habit of giving inflamatory speeches and going for memory refreshing mode. No doubt riots are inhuman and the most cruel act of mankind. There may be intances when due to administrative failures or miscalculation about certain incidence, a group of people may create a situation of suspicion and hatred. But when a political party and its leaders are involved in an organized crime against a particular community then it is an unpardonable crime.

Whatever happened in 1984, after the death of  our beloved PM Late Indira Gandhi was not a spontaneous public reaction but a preplanned massacre and the mayhem that continued for three days is unpardonable. I remember when this news was flashed on DD everybody was in a state of shock and grief. Nobody was thinking it as an act of one community acting against other. But as Late Rajeev Gandhi reached Delhi and a few Congress leaders started giving provocative speeches, then the situation turned violent and a group of people started pelting stones on a particular community.They even went on to convince Rajeev Gandhi that Gyani Jail Singh is not in favour of you becomming PM and he might invite Pranab Mukherjee to take oath. Actually it were these leaders who gave slogan- "Khoon ka badala Khoon. "when the car of our former President was attacked near AIIMS, then all mayhem broke out. A group of people attacked Sikh community at INA market in a pre planned manner and then it became free for all as both PM and Home Minister became contactless or untraceable.  According to the press secretary ,of  the then President,  Home Minister Narsimha Rao was busy in saving his dear friends and police became mere spectators.

When Delhi was burning Home Minister was not even thinking of ordering police take actions against rioters. And more surpringly army was called and deployed after seventy two hours. It is said that local level Congress workers were instigated by a few leaders and hidden hatred in the back ground of terrorism in Punjab was flared up to kill more than three thousand innocent people.It was an organized crime well supported by many Congress leaders, not so much influenced by their own suffering but to show their loyalty to the Gandhi family and Congress governmentnot only supported these leaders but rewarded them by making them ministers. Everybody who helped in the derailment of the investigation was also rewarded in the due course of time.Now qquestion arises What was PM doing? To the utter shock and surprise of common man , he said that when a bug tree falls such termor is natural.Who is that big tree that became bigger than moral and constitutional resposibility of the PM and his cabinate. How can a government allows massacre of its own people for three days under a pretext of termor or being busy with the funeral?  This hidden agenda of the Congress Party should be exposed so that those who have suffered should at least get  justice after 30 years.

This is what Rahul Gandhi indicated in his interview on TIMES NOW. Why to be so perturbed? What Rahul Gandhi is saying now is known to every Congressman, bureaucrat
 and politician. The only thing that is to be seen is the courage to speak the hidden truth of the most indecent story of post independece India. Thanks to Rahul Gandhi, we again started discussing the riots. The Sikh community feels betrayed because even after 30 years and six commission enquiries, no big fish has been caught, clearly due to Government inaction and ill intention to absolve leaders. Now Congress Party is very much disturbed because AAP's government had decided to set up SIT to investigate 1984 riots. As expected by the people, a Congress MLA has begun the same old act of derailing the investigation. One should be very careful about such act as this issue is a very emotional issue.If everything is alright then why is Cogress worried? The main cause of worry is that all hidden truth and story of derailing tactice of both CBI and Delhi Police will come out.
