32 Years Later ‘The Wall Of Truth’ Memorial In Delhi For 1984 Sikh Riots Victims Finally Complete

A memorial for Sikhs killed during the 1984 riots has been constructed by the Delhi Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee (DSGMC) here as a “reminder of injustice” towards the victims.

Called “The Wall of Truth”, the structure has been built in an area of 2500 sq mt and at a cost of Rs 2.25 crore at the Gurdwara Rakabganj Sahib Complex near Parliament. It will be thrown open to the public on January 15 2107

“The widows of the victims will lead the event that will be attended by Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal,” General Secretary, Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee, Manjinder Singh Sirsa said.

“The memorial has names of thousands of Sikhs killed in the carnage and people from other communities who laid down their lives trying to save them etched on its walls. We have also given space to the observations of different panels which were set up by the government to probe the riots,” he said.
