An authoritative account, using eyewitness testimony, of the massacres of India's minority Sikh community during the course of 1984 and the repression that took place in the state of Punjab in the decade afterwards. This film was first shown by the 1984 Truth & Justice campaign to MPs in the UK Houses of Parliament to raise awareness on the 20th anniversary of the pogroms.

After a German embassy official was assassinated in Paris by a Jew in revenge for the mass expulsion of Jews to Poland, attacks on the Jews soon followed. Though it was portrayed as a spontaneous outburst of popular outrage, these pogroms were organized and coordinated by Hitler's Nazis, who beat and murdered Jews throughout Germany and Austria. Synagogues and Jewish businesses were particular targets of attacks. The police and fire brigade looked on. Tens of thousands were rounded up and sent to concentration camps. This marked the beginning of the Holocaust, the mass killing of Europe's Jews.

hindus were not massacred in punjab a few dozen may have been killed so were dozens of sikhs in 1983. In 84 thousands of sikhs were massacred 20,000 in riots all over country. YOU KNOW WHY BECAUSE THIS COUNTRY HAS A BAD CONSTITUTION, IT DOESNT HAVE A FEDERAL STRUCTURE. ONLY LTD DEMOCRACY ENOUGH FOR THE WORLD TO SAY WE ARE DEMOCRATS. YOU KNOW WHAT FERDERALISM MEANS, ASK THE UNITED STATES. RULE OF INDIRA WAS A 'DICTATORSHIP' ZERO TOLERANCE FOR STATES, PARTIES, TRADE UNIONS, MINORITIES ETC

No Sikhs killed any innocent Hindus at all. i used to read newspaper and the ones that were murdered were anti Sikh activists such as SHIV SENA. damn man don't believe everything u hear on TV.

Successive Govt's manipulated the media to attribute all crimes to separatist militants. This generated a public reaction,helpful in denying justice to the Sikhs. The brutality of the train and bus bombing—carried
out by government vigilantes as well ,to discredit Sikh militants—were reprehensible and in no way bestial than extreme police behaviour.
If you mind now do the figuring who's actually behind the killings of innocents!
Hindus Massacred? Let me free u from the false media which has been exposed by the Butcher hindu ass kisser by himself.
Julio Ribeiro, who was the police chief of Punjab writes abt the undercover Operations "In Panjab thr some people with criminal propensities who were known to the police officers at different levels.
They were approached and a few of them
agreed to form groups which would move in the
guise of terrorists and confront the real militants in their den

Are u victim of false Indian hindu media?
By ssfguy2 [Affiliate User] 1215719697 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removehindus were massacred in Punjab? Oye wake up victim of false indian hindu media. Govt masscared hindus to potray Sikhs as militants, only hand full like Jagat Narayan who were spiting poison on Sikhism were dealt with. If so called militants were after hindus in Punjab then during 84 Anti Sikh riots in India, none of the hindu of Punjab would've survived but fact is not even 1 hindu was killed in Punjab during these riots. Think now.
hindu of the Punjab is in fact Traitor as they lied
...
Only an insane person can support such riots however when the hindus were massacred in the same way in punjab not many rallies were organised as were done against against ops bluestar and other govt actions against militants. My humble view is that had that been done, it would have created public opinion aginst militants and maintained the goodwill between hindus and sikhs. But look at the irony... hindus and sikhs fighting... who can imagine...what a black period in Indian history ?

when was this filmed?
Ram Vilas Paswan (born 5 July 1946) is a member of the 14th Lok Sabha of India. He represents the Hajipur Lok Sabha constituency of Bihar and is president of the Lok Janshakti Party, political party.
He is a Dalit Indian politician (Bhangi) from the state of Bihar. He currently leads the Lok Janshakti Party which he founded in 2000 and is a member of the Indian Parliament from Hajipur, Bihar.
Thanks for this video. This definitely is not the country's crowning glory. I, as a 10 year old, watched this Sikh record store looted and ransacked and have always rued the moment from the day. I am amazed at how people can be swayed by an egotistical woman like Indira Gandhi and her lackeys in carrying out such pogroms on a community so small, just because they opposed her tyranny during the emergency rule.
