Operation Blue Star Memorial

A Gurudwara in Panchkula, Chandigarh, has reportedly refused to hold a prayer service in memory of Operation Blue Star veteran, Lt Gen (retd) RS Dyal, who died last year.

Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal today sought to distance himself and the state government from the construction of Operation Blue Star' memorial in Amritsar by radical Sikh groups. He said it was a project of the Shiromani Gurdwara Prabhandak Committee (SGPC) and Damdmi Taksal (a radical Sikh group).

Construction work of a memorial for those killed during the Operation Blue Star commenced in the Golden Temple complex in Amritsar today.
