The Indian government's use of military-grade weapons and tanks against innocent Sikhs during the 1984 Sikh genocide is a stark reminder of the Indian governments brutality. The Indian regime is yet to be held responsible for these violent actions.

The use of lethal weapons raises concerns about human rights violations and the need for immediate ceasefire against peaceful protesters.
