Operation Blue Star was carried out by the Indian Army in June 1984 in order to capture pro-Khalistan ideologue Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale and flush out other militants holed up in the Golden Temple.
Akal Takht has directed the SGPC to ensure that the sanctity of the Golden Temple’s ambience should not be disturbed during the commemoration of Operation Bluestar anniversary. It falls on June 6 annually.
