Operation Blue Star (Wikipedia)

Wikipedia's article on Operation Blue Star, community-edited. Reliable for the settled dates of the Indian Army's assault on the Golden Temple complex at Amritsar, 1 to 10 June 1984, with the heaviest fighting on 5 to 7 June; the casualty figures are sharply disputed and the article states this openly, the government's own initial White Paper naming 83 security force deaths and 4,712 civilian deaths inside the complex against independent human rights estimates exceeding 10,000 dead in total, a gap this atlas names rather than resolves.
