What is Operation Blue Star, and how did it relate to Indira Gandhi's leadership?
Operation Blue Star was a military action ordered by Indira Gandhi in June 1984 to remove militant religious leader Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale and his followers from the Golden Temple complex in Amritsar. The operation resulted in significant casualties and heightened tensions between the Indian government and the Sikh community, contributing to her assassination later that year.
