This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

this wikipedia page is trying to hide the fact that over tens of thousands more sikhs died from 1978-1995 and i am here to change the fact that only the riots parts was done but in the real world there is more under the iceberg than we know of, it would be grateful of me if i can add in details of fake encounters were thousands of sikh youth were killed in staged shootouts, and some operations were thousands were 'picked up' and to never be seen again. thank you if you allow me to bring more light to the real sikh genocide and not whitewash it with just the riots part.

The events are recognized as genocide in the Ontario and Connecticut legislatures; and a rudimentary google scholar search pulls up several peer reviewed articles on the first page. https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=Sikh+Genocide&btnG= Chomskywala (talk) 22:41, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
