Sikh women speak out on terror, torture, survival in Sanam Sutirath Wazir's powerful book

Today marks 40 years of the carnage that took place on October 31st, 1984 in Delhi. Today marks 40 years of anti Sikh violence, living the terror, facing the torture, suffering immeasurable loss and surviving the massacre of 1984 that took place after Operation Blue Star of June 1984 and the assassination of late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Author, historian and human rights activist Sanam Sutirath Wazir's book, 'The Kaurs of 1984- The Untold, Unheard Stories of Sikh Women' narrates gruesome accounts of women who were at the receiving end of this endless trauma. Sanam Sutirath Wazir’s research has taken him across north India to meet the women who lived to tell the tale, many of whom are still fighting invisible battles for justice. Among the many oral testimonies, one crucial constituency has remained silent. Hundreds of Sikh women witnessed hell coming to life that year. These included women who were stranded inside the Golden Temple, who stood by their militant men, and those who were, at one time in their lives, militants themselves. They are rape survivors. They are among the murdered. They are the forgotten. Based on interviews and extensive historical research, in The Kaurs of 1984, Wazir weaves together scattered stories of grief, betrayal and loss that finally brings Sikh women out of the shadows of contemporary Indian history. We talk to Sanam about the women he met, the book that was a difficult work to pen and read, and how he hopes they find peace and justice, and above all, an apology. An ode to these brave women whose fight has kept the battle for justice alive. @sanamsutirathwazirofficial @harpercollinsin @1469original Cameraperson: Sukhwinder Singh Baraj Editing: Harsh Chaurasia Location: 1469, Sector 17, Chandigarh Follow us on: Instagram: @jasnuts11 Facebook:   / jaskiran.kapoor.9   X - @jasnuts Like it.
