Nirmal Kaur, a Sikh woman, was just 13 years old when she witnessed her father’s killing during an anti-Sikh massacre in 1984 after the then Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was assassinated by her two Sikh bodyguards. The indiscriminate killings continued for three days. Mobs torched gurudwaras and houses, beat and burned Sikh men alive, and raped Sikh women. According to official estimates, 2,800 Sikhs were killed in Delhi alone, and around 3,500 nationwide. However, independent sources estimate the number to be between 8,000 and 17,000. Multiple commissions said there was evidence against senior members of the Delhi wing of the then ruling Indian National Congress party. Some party members were accused of instigating mobs to avenge the assassination of Indira Gandhi by killing Sikhs in their respective constituencies. One of the key accused, Sajjan Kumar, was sentenced to life imprisonment. Thirty-eight years later, the Kaurs continue to fight their case, related to the killing of their family members, at Delhi High Court. Their struggle carries on. In this episode of “The Dinner Table,” an observational docuseries produced in partnership with India-based Newsreel Asia, host Rathore cooked a meal with the Kaurs and sat down to have dinner with them while the crew filmed the unscripted, heart-to-heart conversations that took place. The upcoming episodes of “The Dinner Table” will feature India’s other persecuted communities to explore what identity-based discrimination and violence do to the minds and hearts of members of a community.
