Some wounds don’t heal with time. 1st November, the day no innocent Sikh can forget. The massacre in which innocent Sikhs were killed for no fault of theirs. Mobs went door to door with names and addresses. Homes were turned to ash. 2,733 lives were lost in Delhi alone. It wasn’t a riot. It was pre-planned, and it was targeted. 42 years later, we owe the survivors more than silence. We owe them remembrance, accountability and justice. And the same Congress that never apologised in a meaningful way now takes over Delhi on 1 November, the day the 1984 killings began, to create anarchy in the country again.
