1984: Delhi Anti-Sikh riots
A few days back while watching a dance reality show on TV I saw a girl – whose name I am not sure – sounded like “Hart Kaur” (in fact it kept sounding like hard core). I just happened to stop on that channel and this girl was narrating what she saw in 1984. She saw a big group of people come into their area and kill her father and her grandfather. It was almost emotionless when she said it. She was a 5-year old kid. I felt sad and horribly guilty that we do not care enough.
None of the participants or judges had a dry eye. However nobody said “We have lived through Congress and BJP governments and no justice was done”. Shamelessly the same guys will now ask for votes. It is easy to say God will do justice. It is time that we sent emails, letters, wrote blogs about these spineless police officers who have learnt to grovel and politicians who will do nothing. Come on India, take charge.
However this girl cannot give ‘evidence’ because she may not be able to remember the names and faces, but surely her experience is etched in my memory.

first of all you should not be calling this a ‘riot’ at all. It was a cold blooded murder by politicians. On google you will find the role of Jagdish Tytler, Amitabh Bachan’s inflamatory remarks, HKL Bhagat, our great commerce minister (yes a member of the Sardar’s cabinet!) Kamal nath,…all you need to do is google. Let us call it by its Christian name – state sponsored mass murder of innocent people who do not even know why they were murdered. A whole generation after partition it got repeated with GOVERNMENTAL support. Of course some poetic justice Indira’s family say Sanjay killed in a plane crash, Indira by her bodyguards, Rajiv by a human bomb – AND THE FAMILY still sticks to power just to enjoy the ill gotten wealth.
