1984 riots: 'Why nobody noticed Amitabh Bachchan spewing venom in India'


A prime witness in 1984 anti-Sikh riots case has alleged that Ambitabh Bachchan shouted 'khun ka badla khun sae laengae' two times instigating the rioters.

AMRITSAR: A prime witness in 1984 anti-Sikh riots said that everyone who had been watching Doordarshan saw how superstar Amitabh Bachchan provoked the rioters.

"I wonder why no one in India lodged case against Amitabh Bachchan for provoking killing of Sikhs," said Jagdish Kaur, prime witness in 1984 anti- Sikh riots while talking to TOI on Thursday.

Following Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's assassination by her Sikh bodyguards Satwant Singh and Beant Singh, India erupted in riots against Sikhs in 1984. Reminiscing the sad memories of hate crime against Sikhs she said, "I watched live relay on Doordarshan and saw Amitabh Bachchan raising his arm and shouting the slogan, 'khun ka badla khun sae laengae' (Blood for blood) two times. "

Jagdish Kaur said that everyone who had been watching Doordarshan was witness to how the bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan provoked the anti- Sikh riots. "I am not concerned that a case has been registered against him in Australia but all I want to know why nobody noticed Amitabh's provoking statement in India," Kaur asked. She said that ever since she saw Amitabh spewing venom in full public glare she never watched any of his movies or programmes on TV. "Any mention of him or his work reminds me of his role in the 1984 riots," she said.

Recently a US-based Sikh human rights group lodged a criminal complaint against Bachchan in Australia for instigating and abetting 1984 anti Sikh riots. Australia's 'Criminal Code Act 1995' states that Australian courts can have jurisdiction over cases involving crimes against humanity irrespective of whether the offense was committed in Australia or not.

Jagdish Kaur, then 42, had seen her husband and son being murdered in cold blood by a frenzied mob inside her house in Palam Colony (West Delhi) on November 1st 1984. She also saw her three brothers Narinder Pal Singh, 35, Raghwinder Singh, 28 and Kuldeep Singh ,21, all contractors with MES, burning to death by the mob while they were trying to save themselves

Judge for yourself. Remember its a reputable newspaper. Bachchan's proximity with the Nehru-Gandhi family. Personally, I'm disgusted.

AB was very close to Rajiv gandhi at the time Indra was assasinated. ...i am not surprised.. heard about it long time ago...
it was disgusting behavior by "certain hindus".. killing their own country men.
of course there were lots of hindus who proteced their sikh friends to..
it was a dark time in indian/punjab history.

AB has no morals.. its all about money.. his mom was half sikh or something like that...

Pretty ignorant statement.

I'm not here to judge. Thats for the courts to do. Will it happen? NO

But if this is true, Bachchan is a bigger douche-bag than all the other actors combined.

This is CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY.

This isn't about Hindus and Sikhs. The Mob was paid. This is about the biggest Indian superstar inticing a mob and hate-crime.

How is that ignorant? It was a genuine question. Because I'm sure there will be tapes as DD archives are protected. So I won't believe until I see it. Thanks!

Its ignorant to believe that the evidence is still archived by DD. Its Mr.Bachchan, he's been known to stop Tv Networks from broadcasting interviews because he didn't come across smart or witty enough.

You can believe whatever you want to believe. I believe Bachchan is a scumbag and anything is possible with him.

My mom dislikes this guy for the reasons mentioned in this article and told me the same story a long time ago. I can't stand this man and the way the public treats him as "god." It's pathetic! He's been in so many scandals not just in films, but in politics, corruption and what not. It's horrible the way society worships certain people and disregards/overlooks the worst of their crimes.
