Demanding justice for the victims of the anti-Sikh riots, the National 1984 Victims’ Justice and Welfare Society staged a dharna at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on Sunday.
The organisation also set a November 19 deadline for meeting its demands, which include expulsion of some prominent Congress leaders from the party. The organisation members also burnt effigies of senior Congress leaders Sajjan Kumar, Jagdish Tytler and Kamal Nath as also HKL Bhagat (since deceased) to register their protest.
“If the Congress party needs more Sikh sacrifice, the community is willing to be beheaded once again. Over 300 people from all parts of the Capital joined the campaign against saving the guilty,” said society president Babu Singh Dukhiya, adding that the society was supported by other organisations including the Sikh for Justice (USA) and the All-India Sikh Students’ Federation.
