AMRITSAR: It'S been 30 years since Operation Blue Star , that festering wound in Punjab's psyche, and if anyone thought it's all a thing of the past, there are those who beg to differ.The Trust that runs the Durgiana Temple, one of the biggest temples in Amritsar, is planning a 'Hindu' memorial to the military operation that had over 500 dead and hundreds injured. This would be the second such memorial to those fallen in the Golden Temple complex three decades ago in a botched military operation to flush out Sikh mjilitants led by Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale inside the temple complex.The first memorial was built under the supervision of Damdami Taksal – the radical Sikh seminary once headed by Jar nail Singh Bhindranwale – and was handed over to the Shiromani Gurudwara Parbandak Committee (SGPC) in April 2013."The committee has passed this resolution. In few weeks from now, work should begin at the site," Durgiana temple trust committee chairman Ramesh Sharma told ET on the probable second memorial. However, he ducked a question on the need for such a memorial.Multiple sources in the committee told ET that it had already received three letters by radical Sikh outfits, threatening dire consequences if it went ahead with the project. Another outfit, the Dal Khalsa, has given call for an 'Amritsar Shutdown' on June 6 to mark the 30th anniversary. Political scientists feel the move for a new memorial will fan flames further with the government having failed to nip the first one in the bud."Now that BJP is in power, RSS workers, who form a large chunk in temple committees, are exhorting separate memorials for Hindus. It's ridiculous, but the Akalis have always been busy playing politics over this. Now they may find the situation difficult to handle. There was no need for any memorial at Harmandir sahib in the first place," said political scientist Prof Surinder Shukla.The controversial memorial built under the patronage of the Shiromani Akali Dal government, despite stiff resistance by its ally BJP, proved a major emotive issue during the general elections. The city witnessed huge polarisation in Hindu and Sikh votes.Political observers believe that had the elections occurred after the Blue Star anniversary, Amritsar would have been one of the sensitive constituencies. "Fortunately, it didn't happen," Shukla told ET. "But what is worrying is if the memorial sets precedent," said Shukla.
