JNU, anti-national? Think again!
Indira Gandhi’s assassination on October 31, 1984, brought forth tales of cowardice but also unparalleled bravery.
Violence broke out almost immediately. Shekhar Gupta recalls the scene in Delhi: “Along the radial roads emanating from Connaught Circus, fires blazed as if in a choreographed show. Furniture shops on Panchkuian Road were set on fire...at a glass-and-mirror shop, a Sikh...was impaled by shards of large glass sheets that rained on him as the shop was looted...”
The violence spread almost geographically. In upscale areas of Vasant Vihar, homes of affluent Sikhs were targeted.
