1. Operation Blue Star.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Operation Blue Star was the code name for an Indian military action carried out between 1 and 8 June,1984, to capture Sikh leader Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale and his followers along with demolition of the buildings of Harmandir Sahib (Golden Temple) complex in Amritsar, Punjab. The decision to launch the attack rested with Prime Minister Indira Gandhi,[11] who, according to retired general S.K. Sinha, had been considering the operation for more than 18 months prior, authorizing army preparation for it long before any insurgents were in the complex.[12][13] In July 1982, Harchand Singh Longowal, the President of the Sikh political party Akali Dal, had invited Bhindranwale to take up residence in the Golden Temple Complex to evade demolition of Sri Akal Takht Sahib.[14][15] The government said that Bhindranwale later turned the sacred temple complex into an armoury and headquarters.[16]
