Stupid and Biased article.
by Aman Tandon on Nov 04, 2005 10:58 AM   Permalink

Stupid and Biased is all I can call this. I am a Hindu Punjabi and have seen start,peak and end of terrorism in Punjab. Sikhs are no different from Hindus but for the Turban so there is no point separating Sikhs and Hindu. Btw how sikhs were formed.Hindus who wnated to fight against injustice became sikhs and in process they started following rules and practices with aim to bringing discipline and enthusiam. majority of my freinds have been Sikhs and they never wanted a partition.

For 84 riots even I feel the same pain as any sikh will feel. But for Bluestar , I think it`s justified looking at the situation. Though Indira Gandhi could have avoided it if she wanted to to right in the beginning.Congress is responsible for protecting Bhidrawala during his early years and when he grew too big and important they wanted to get rid of him. By that time he had patronage with Pakis and rest is history. But May-June 64 situation was such that nothing but Bluestar could save.

In end I request writer to be little pragmatic and look at both sides of the coin instead writting without using the grey cells.
