The Sikh Genocide 1984 comprised various massacres of the Sikhs carried throughout India during first week of November in 1984. Sajjan Kumar and Jagdish Tytler are prime living accused of Sikh Genocide 1984 who instigated and supervised massacres of Sikhs in Delhi. They enjoyed impunity for last 30 years and they were granted powerful political positions from time to time.
