1984 Anti Sikh riots orchestrated by Secular congress were truly shocking and atrocious.

In some circles, Hindus as a whole have been frequently blamed for these riots. This is false and misleading.

The mob which rioted against Sikhs was mainly composed of Subalterns & Mμslims
The mob which conducted Anti Sikh riots in 1984 was comprised of subaltern and Mμslim elements from outskirts of Delhi.

They were led by Congress (Indira) leaders.

If anything. Hindu neighbour protected Sikhs and many RSS members largely protected Sikhs during these riots. This fact was acknowledged by Sikh historian Khushwant Singh
In Trilokpuri area alone, Hindus protected 600 Sikh women and children during 1984 riots. This incident was published in The New York Times. https://www.nytimes.com/1984/11/04/world/some-hindus-protected-sikhs.html
