Another Thatcher cover up

[Redray]

Cover blown.

 

This is quite a shock to British Sikhs, many of them staunch Tories who will be not be comfortable voting for them again and Cameron may need to issue another apology.

 

It was a cowardly attack on a religious day that has been universally condemned. Several thousand innocents, including women and children were killed. Sikhs still trying to get justice after 30 years and the Indian government officials that subsequently ordered massacres of Sikhs across India still walk free despite clear evidence they were involved. Not even sure why I am surprised that Thatchers Government were involved.

 

 

 

 

Did UK help Indira Gandhi plan Operation Bluestar, asks Labour MP

A law-maker from the Labour party claims that he has seen documents that suggest Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's administration helped Indira Gandhi plan the storming of the Golden Temple in 1984, in which security forces entered the holy site to flush out militants.

 

Tom Watson, MP for West Bromwich East, told the BBC Asian network channel, that he has seen "top secret papers from Mrs Thatcher authorizing SAS (Special Air Services) to collude with the Indian government."

 

He said the government appears to have "held back"some documents and must disclose more information. "This trying to hide what we did...not coming clean...would be a very great error," hesaid. (See full report on BBC)

 

"The documents seem to indicate Ms Thatcher knew about the sensitivity of this issue," Mr Watson told NDTV.

 

"I am writing to the Foreign Secretary about this matter and will raise it in the House of Commons. I expect a full explanation," the MP said on his website.

 

More than 1,000 people were killed in Operation Bluestar,the raid on Sikhism's holiest shrine. Five months later, in retaliation, Mrs Gandhi was assassinated by her Sikh bodyguards.
