  • Remembering the 1984 Anti-Sikh Violence
    208 Acta Academica • 2015 47(1): 208-227 © UV/UFS • ISSN 0587-2405 <http://www.ufs.ac.za/ActaAcademica> ‘Just another riot in India’: remembering the 1984 anti-Sikh violence Jasneet Aulakh J Aulakh, Faculty of History, Room G3, University of Oxford First submission: 21 October 2014 Acceptance: 22 February 2015 In this article,1 I aim to problematize the ‘riots’ label that defines the 1984 anti-Sikh pogrom following Prime Minister Indira Gandhi’s assassination. Focused in, though not limited to Delhi, the pogrom included the death of approximately 3 000 Sikhs, the destruction of homes and gurdwaras, and mass rape. By remembering the attacks as ‘riot’, both the government and the public depict the violent acts as unorganised and spontaneous mob activity, trivialising the systematic nature of the pogrom and denying central government and police complicity. This effectively silences the victims who have yet to earn any recognition or rights as victims, including death certification and arrests of perpetrators. Using interviews, unpublished police reports and court affidavits, I explore the ways in which voices are silenced for the sake of preserving national integrity, and how national narratives can continue to oppress victims. 1 I was able to complete this research with funding from the University of Southern California and the direction of many scholars, especially Dr. Wolf Gruner. I would also like to thank all those whom I interviewed, some of whose names have been changed for anonymity. Jasneet Aulakh / ‘Just another riot in India’: remembering the 1984 anti-Sikh violence 209 n the morning of 31 October 1984, Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi, was walking to her office when two of her bodyguards stopped to first salute and then shoot her.

Impunity means the impossibility of holding perpetrators accountable because they are shielded by law or protected by political institutions and powers. Ensaaf’s cutting edge advocacy is implemented though four coordinated programs: Community Organizing to mobilize survivors to become active participants for change; Documentation & Education to expose violations and counter official denials; Legal Advocacy to remove perpetrators from power through legal accountability; and United Nations advocacy to build international consensus, support and pressure to end impunity for mass state crimes in India.

Measures to curb communalism Content Khalistan Movement The Khalistan movement is a Sikh separatist movement, which seeks to create a separate country called Khalistān (“The Land of the Pure”) in the Punjab region of South Asia to serve as a homeland for Sikhs. After India’s independence, the Punjabi Suba movement, led by the Sikh political party Akali Dal, sought the creation of a province (suba) for Punjabi people. The Khalistan movement began as an expatriate venture. With financial and political support of the Sikh diaspora the movement flourished in the Indian state of Punjab, which has a Sikh-majority population and reached its zenith in the late 1970s and 1980s, when the secessionist movement caused large- scale violence.
