On 5th June, 1984, the Indian army started attacking the Amritsar Complex that housed the two most sacred shrines of the Sikh sting community- the Golden Temple and the Akal Takht. The generals who opposed the use of strong attack on the shrine were not prepared for the fierce and adept resistance they encountered. Mrs Gandhi became the reign of terror in Punjab after the Operation Blue Star. Mark Tully and Satish Jacob documented the account of historical and political events bringing the Sikh tragedy into focus from many arresting angles. Mark Tully and Satish Jacob gathered eye-witness accounts from every quarter to fill this remarkable picture of what occurred and present their thoughts provoking analysis with eloquence.
