Why indira gandhi was killed?

Answer 1

Due to Operation Blue Star, the sikh community was really angry on Indira Gandhi as she invaded the Golden Temple (Most religious place for sikh community) with Tanks and Guns. Her sikh bodyguards Beant Singh and Satwant Singh visited Golden Temple after the operation blue star and they could not hold their anger after seeing what happned there. Indira Gandhi was responsible for this because she lead the army to the golden temple(a religious shrine to Sikhs) to kill Bhindranwala (a influential Sikh leader who wanted equal rights for them in India). But because the government choose to attack the temple on a religious day, more than 1,000 innocent people died as it was full of devotees. This attack caused an outrage in the Sikh community. Beant Sikh, Satwant Singh and Kehar Singh took the initiative and decided to take revenge from Indira Gandhi. This was quite similar to what Udham Singh did to take the revenge for Jalianwala Bagh or what Bhagat Singh did to take the revenge of the death of Lala Lajpat Rai.

On October 31, 1984 Beant Singh drew a .38 revolver and fired three shots into her abdomen. As she fell to the ground, Satwant Singh pumped all 30 rounds from his Sten automatic weapon into her crumpled body. At least seven bullets penetrated her abdomen, three her chest and one her heart. The Prime Minister was dead. The two Sikhs then calmly dropped their guns. As other security guards seized them, Beant Singh said 'I've done what I had to do. You do what you want to do.' Beant Singh then was killed by gunfire while Satwant Singh was arrested and later sentenced to death.

Answer 2

Indira Gandhi, then Prime Minister of India, was assassinated on October 31, 1984. [1] She was killed by two of her Sikh bodyguards,[2] Satwant Singh and Beant Singh, to avenge the military attack on the Harmandir Sahib (Sikhism's holiest shrine) during Operation Blue Star.[3]

1. Punjab will be India's part

2. thos who will ask for khalistan will be die,

so live peacefully with India or 1984 will repeat

This is where mine starts:

Your inhumane rhetoric was the reason indira was her own undoing. Her attack increases KHALISTANI demands. If you speak so, then their will be a state for Punjabi refugees of the Indian government. Not every Sikh wants it, but if people like you keep this then you will start it.

PS: Why do you think punjabis didn't do a 1984 in Punjab (mass murder): because they chose not. All those who played a part in these riots must be brought to justice.
