Over the course of three days, more than 3,000 Sikhs were brutally murdered in India's capital, Delhi, in the aftermath of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's assassination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"545\" data-end=\"896\"\u003eDespite extensive inquiries and trials, the perpetrators of this massacre, both the organizers and state officials who enabled it, have largely escaped justice. The book critically examines how the rule of law failed to protect the victims, serving as a grim reminder of the flaws in India’s judicial and legal system during times of political crisis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"898\" data-end=\"1184\"\u003eWritten with deep insight, this book questions the state's role in facilitating the massacre and the lack of accountability for those responsible. It is a poignant account of a dark period in India’s history, urging reflection on the country's commitment to justice and the rule of law.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roli Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51223322165552,"sku":"BestBookCentre__G1633","price":180.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/BestBook_13_f61a8207-9d79-4ab1-9ac9-12295802a411.png?v=1774514559","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/when-a-tree-shook-delhi","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
