Diljit Dosanjh says 1984 was a genocide and not riots - Page 4

You dont need a source for the fact that "sun rises in the morning"

As I said Punjab was one central state where the border line was drawn. The fact that it became a central place in the midst of the chaos all had to do with its location and who became most of the refugees due to how the two countries were divided. Not just murder or rape. Most Sikhs lost most of their land and wealth during the partition. When I ask my grandmother what her financial circumstances were like, in now what is Pakistan Punjab compared to how her family fared in India Punjab? She told me she lead a completely different life after partition.

More like you do not have one. I rest my case here!

Btw. I still don't know how and why we got to partition from a film about 1984? Nothing that happened in partition can disprove Diljit's statement.

Riots is when two or more groups kill each other.

When only one group is targeted and through state power, propaganda against them by media and hate speech by politicians and organised mobs then it is genocide.

Sikhs were killed, raped, looted, burnt alive and anything belonging to Sikhs was burnt on mass scale in 1984 by state sponsored mobs.

It is not riots. But genocide. One sided killing is genocide.

I am glad Diljit spoke it as it is. And minced no words unlike celebs of past. I am also glad fake secular Congress gets exposed royally by new generation as well who never forgot what our parents went through.

Bring on more movies from that era. And show how Congress leaders provided weapons to mobs and lists of Sikh addresses and asked mobs to burn Sikhs alive.

1947 is riots not genocide. It was all groups killing each other. And not a state sponsored one sided killing of one community.

And do not act innocent as if Hindus and Sikhs were not killed and forced to leave places which are now called Pakistan and Bangladesh.

When only one group is victim and target that is genocide. When all groups fight it is riots.

not talking about the film, but the real mass murders and historical worst possible human killings that happened by the same community during 1947 partition (darkest pages of history of south Asian region), who got genocide in 1984

Oh STFU. Who declared Direct Action Day? Who started massacres at Moplah, Rawalpindi? Who pushed for partition?

Do not get us started. Sikhs and Hindus were cleansed from their ancestral places in West Punjab. Looted, raped, killed. We had women jumping in wells to save themselves from rapist mobs.

Do not whine if there was a retaliation after seeing trains full of dead bodies coming from that side of the border.

And worst historical killings in South Asia were by INVADERS who also destroyed our religious places. Do not get me started on history. I can school you very well. But this is not the forum to do so.

He is right because the target were Sikh People.

A female servant helped save a Sikh family saying that nobody was inside the house.

Some good Hindu people were helping Sikhs to save their lives.

Congressi mobs even killed those Hindus who tried to save Sikhs and called them traitors. Memorial for 1984 victims at Gurdwara Rakab Ganj and Sis ganj in Delhi has names of such Hindu victims too. Some mad mobs even killed some Hindus who wore karas mistaking them to be mona sardars.

Hawayein was the film which covered this but UPA govt banned it.

I answered it plenty of times. I said it was mob violence which many different groups participated in. Please tell me how anything you posted about partition was relevant to this film. It became because someone said a factual Sikh statement I am going to make it sound like Sikhs are monsters.
