The plainly remember #RajivGandhi for 1984 Sikh Massacre, 

This #Thread will explain you the Conspiracy and Collaboration of State sponsored Carnage ..
Congress's Role in this Planned Massacre
It was a series of organised program aganist Sikhs in India.

in response to the assassination of Indira Gandhi by her Sikh bodyguards.The ruling Congress had been in active complicity with the mob, as to the organisation of the riots.

Government estimates project that about 2,800 Sikhs were killed in Delhi and 3,350 nationwide

whilst independent sources estimate the number of deaths at about 8,000–17,000.

Sikhs were killed in 40 cities across India.At least 50,000 Sikhs were displaced.Sultanpuri, Mangolpuri,Trilokpuri, and other Trans-Yamuna areas of Delhi were the worst affected.

Perpetrators carried iron rods, knives, clubs, and combustible material (including kerosene and petrol). They entered Sikh neighbourhoods, killing Sikhs indiscriminately and destroying shops and houses.

Armed mobs stopped buses and trains in and near Delhi, pulling off Sikh passengers for lynching; 
some were burnt alive. Others were dragged from their homes and hacked to death, and Sikh women were reportedly gang-raped and Sikhs also had acid thrown on them.

On 31 October, a crowd around the All India Institute of Medical Sciences began shouting vengeance slogans such as "Blood for blood!" and became an unruly mob. President Zail Singh arrived at the hospital and the mob stoned his car.

During the night of 31 October and the morning of 1 November, Congress Party leaders met with local supporters to distribute money and weapons. Congress MP Sajjan Kumar and trade-union leader Lalit Maken handed out ₹100 notes and bottles of liquor to the assailants.

On the morning of 1 November, Sajjan Kumar was observed holding rallies in the Delhi neighbourhoods of Palam Colony (from 06:30 to 07:00), Kiran Gardens (08:00 to 08:30), and Sultanpuri (about 08:30 to 09:00).[13] In Kiran Gardens at 8:00 am,

Kumar was observed distributing iron rods from a parked truck to a group of 120 people and ordering them to "attack Sikhs, kill them, and loot and burn their properties.During the morning he led a mob along the Palam railway road to Mangolpuri, where the crowd chanted: "

Kill the Sardars" and "Indira Gandhi is our mother and these people have killed her". In Sultanpuri, Moti Singh (a Sikh Congress Party member for 20 years) heard Kumar make the following speech:Whoever kills the sons of the snakes, I will reward them.

Whoever kills Roshan Singh and Bagh Singh will get 5,000 rupees each and 1,000 rupees each for killing any other Sikhs. You can collect these prizes on November 3 from my personal assistant Jai Chand Jamadar.

In the Shakarpur neighbourhood, Congress Party leader Shyam Tyagi's home was used as a meeting place for an undetermined number of people.Minister of Information and Broadcasting H. K. L. Bhagat gave money to Boop Tyagi (Tyagi's brother),

saying: "Keep these two thousand rupees for liquor and do as I have told you ... You need not worry at all. I will look after everything."

During the night of 31 October, Balwan Khokhar (a local Congress Party leader who was implicated in the massacre) held a meeting at

Pandit Harkesh's ration shop in Palam. Congress Party supporter Shankar Lal Sharma held a meeting, where he assembled a mob which swore to kill Sikhs, in his shop at 08:30 on 1 November.

Kerosene, the primary mob weapon, was supplied by a group of Congress Party leaders

who owned filling stations. In Sultanpuri, Congress Party A-4 block president Brahmanand Gupta distributed oil while Sajjan Kumar "instructed the crowd to kill Sikhs, and to loot and burn their properties".

Similar meetings were held at locations such as Cooperative Colony in Bokaro, where local Congress president and gas-station owner P. K. Tripathi distributed kerosene to mobs.

On 31 October, Congress Party officials provided assailants with voter lists, school registration forms

and ration lists.The lists were used to find Sikh homes and business, an otherwise-impossible task because they were in unmarked, diverse neighbourhoods. During the night of 31 October, before the massacres began, assailants used the lists to mark Sikh houses with an "S".

10 commisions were made to investigate this organised crime and all recommended the registration of cases against H. K. L. Bhagat, Sajjan Kumar, Dharamdas Shastri and Jagdish Tytler.

The recent Nanavati commission inducted kamal nath and his active role in this massacre

Hope liberals also remember Rajiv Gandhi's justification of 1984 riots- 'When A Big Tree Falls, Earth Shakes'. All politicians close to Rajiv Gandhi are accused of running the 1984 riots- Tytler, Sajjan Kumar, Kamal Nath & were and still are under the Gandhi family protection!
