The Indian General Who Wouldn’t Attack The Sikhs in 1984 – Dies

lt-gen-s-k-sinha-diesDELHI, India—The Indian General who said no to Indira Gandhi when she was planing to attack Harmandar Sahib in 1984 has passed away due to old age.  Lieutenant General Srinivas Kumar Sinha passed away naturally, at the age of 90, in Delhi last Thursday. 

In 1983, Indira consulted her prized General, who had protected Srinagar from Pakistan, straight after independence. She planned to storm the ‘Golden Temple’ but General Sinha advised against it. She rejected his advice and he was subsequently ousted from his position. He chose not to fight the blatant indiscretion and decided to back away from the army, with his dignity and self-respect intact. 

He subsequently became the Governor of Jammu & Kashmir but eventually stepped down from this position too. His thoughts on settling the long standing dispute over J&K was once too often ignored.

  1. ALSO HE SAID THE SIKHS SHOULD SURRENDER TO THE GURU GRANTH SAHIB ….. LMAO OKAY UM THIS MAN CLEARLY DID NOT EVEN SEE THIS AS A GENOCIDE, YEAH AS IF THE INDIAN ARMY WERE GOING TO RESPECT THE SIRI GURU GRANTH SAHIB, THEY BURNED THE SIRI GURU GRANTH SAHIBS IN JUNE 1984, ONLY GOD KNOWS HOW MANY THESE DISGUSTING HOOLIGANS BURNT!

  2. BTW HE IS FROM BIHAR, SO I AM SURE HE KNOWS WHO GURU GOBIND SINGH IS, HE KNEW SIKH HISTORY AND MAYBE HE WAS TOO AFRAID TO ATTACK SIKHS BECAUSE HE KNEW WHAT THE CONSEQUENCES WILL BE, …. IF ANYONE IS ASKED TO GO KILL INNOCENT SIKHS OR ANY INNOCENT HUMAN BEING WOULDN’T YOU SAY NO? SHALL WE START PRAISING PEOPLE FOR USING COMMON MORALITY NOW? ALSO, SANT JARNAIL SINGH, WHATEVER YOU BELIEVE ABOUT HIM, HE DID NOT DESERVE TO HAVE 4-5 TANKS POINTING MACHINE GUNS AT HIM, SO I INCLUDE HIM IN THE INNOCENT CATEGORY

  3. actually he just advised that the army men take off their shoes, a replica gurdwara be made outside for the “pilgrims” to go inside who were “trapped” (the indian army trapped sikhs inside and did not let them leave), and he wanted the army to cover their heads…. UMMMM WELLL FIRST OF ALL THE ARMY SHOULD NOT HAVE EVEN INVADED PUNJAB AND SIKH GURDWARAS, PERIOD! this man was not some hero, if he was, he would’ve been more outspoken about the atrocities committed by the indian army, it wasn’t about “preserving the sanctuary” at siri darbar sahib, it was about the army coming in and trying to destroy every sikh in their path, destroy historical sikh buildings and burn the sikh museum and library with historical artefacts

    SIKH24 HOW ABOUT YOU GUYS DO BETTER RESEARCH BEFORE PRAISING PEOPLE AND POSTING ARTICLES WHICH MISLEAD PEOPLE
