Dear Harpreet, Undoubtedly the massacre of sikhs by the congress goons under the clear instructions of the 'charming and extremely sensitive young Congress leader' is a major blot on our nation. The much hyped Gujarat riots led to deaths of 800 Hindus due to firing by the 'inactive' Gujarat police whereas not a single congress goon was hurt in police action to stop massacre of innocent sikhs. Who gave the most cruel and insensitive statement "whenever a big tree falls, earth is bound to shake", when he was asked to explain his government's inaction regarding protection of sikhs? It was most painful for me to see sikh ladies and gentlemen dancing around Jagadish Tytler and Sajjan Kumar when they were elected as MPs last year. There was no dearth of sikhs thanking profusely Smt Sonia Gandhi on making a sikh PM of India but none of them dared to ask her to apologise to the sikhs for the massacre ordered by the then Congress president. If sikhs don't show any spine and are ready to forget congress leaders, whether alive or dead, for massacre of sikhs, please don't expect it from non sikhs. Ask yourself who stopped sikhs to give their opinion on rediff? Why they keep mum? Kuldeep

Dear Harpreet, I assume you are a Sikh. No Indian is proud of the 1984 massacar. I was in college in those days and I was witness to it all.
However, are you or any sikh be able to explain how the hallowed Golden Temple in Amritsar got converted into a fortress? Guns and ammunition have no place in a temple - do you know that? And how do you explain the terrorism in Punjab in the preceeding years, where any individual without a turban was fleeing? OR for that matter - Jarnail Singh Bhindrawale the mastermind of extremeism is also summoned as a Sant. Why?
Wake up buddy - and realise that the effects of today are the results of the causes one created in the past.
