Operation Blue Star
Operation Blue Star was set up on 3–6 June 1984 was an Indian military operation ordered by Indira Gandhi, then Prime Minister of India, to remove Sikh separatists who were amassing weapons in the Golden Temple in Amritsar. The operation was launched in response to a deterioration of law and order in the Indian state of Punjab. The Indian government broke all of their promises and forgot all about the liberties the Sikhs had essentially won for India.
