New York, United States (December 14, 2011): An eyewitness has come forward with startling account of how he was present in front of All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) on October 31, 1984 when Bachchan shouted pointing towards a Sikh in the crowd “Maro saalon ko, desh ke ghaddaron ko”.
Witness Manjit Singh Saini, 52, originally from Kalu Sarai, Delhi presently residing in California, USA has decided to break his silence after Amitabh Bachchan approached Sri Akal Takhat Sahib pleading innocence. According to Saini, this however is not the first time that he is giving statement regarding Bachchan’s role in instigating killing of Sikhs. Earlier in 1985 he had submitted a written statement to the staff of the then Senior Officer of Delhi Police Ved Marwah, who was then investigating the November 1984 killing of Sikhs. Blaming Marwah for inaction, Saini stated that despite his written statement regarding Bachchan’s inciting violence against Sikh, no action of was taken against Bachchan by Delhi Police. Recounting the ordeal that he faced after submitting his 1985 statement to Delhi Police, Saini stated that he was forced to move from place to place while his house in Kalu Sarai continues to be under illegal occupation since November 1984.
According to Saini, on October 31, 1984 he saw Amitabh Bachchan walking out of AIIMS and screaming on top of his voice “Sikho ne Indira Ji ko mar dala” and then pointing to a turbaned Sikh man in the crowd, Bachchan roared “Maro saalon ko, desh ke ghaddaron ko”. Bachchan raised his arm and continued shouting “khoon ke cheentay Sikhon ke ghar tak puhnchanay chahiyay” and “khoon ka badla khoon”. The crowd, which was calm prior to Bachchan’s slogans became violent and attacked a Sikh in the gathering and how I narrowly escaped, stated Saini. According to Saini, “the whole incident of how Bachchan incited people against Sikhs in front of AIIMS reeled before my eyes as soon as I learnt that Bachchan is denying having incited violence against Sikhs”. In fact Bachchan used his super star status to ignite violence against Sikhs across India, added Saini.
Saini has given his sworn statement to Sikhs For Justice (SFJ) which is seeking criminal prosecution against Bachchan in Australia under “The Criminal Code Act 1995” which gives Australian courts jurisdiction in cases involving crimes against humanity even when such crime is committed outside Australia. According to Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, international human rights lawyer SFJ will submit Saini’s eyewitness account regarding Bachchan’s open call of violence against Sikhs to Australian Federal Police (AFP) to investigate Bachchan’s role in November 1984.
Copies of Red card (Translated to English), Evidence of Property in Delhi and affidavit of Manjeet Singh Saini are available with Sikh Siyasat Network.

impossible amitabh bachchan kabhie bhi aisi bhasa ka use nahin kar sakte hain.
Many persons have accused Amitabh Bachchan for doing so since 1984. But due to his position and close relations with Gandhi family he was able to avoid any inquiry. When other major culprits like Sajjan Kumar, Kamal Nath and Jagdish Tytler were able to roam freely, it was not possible to nail A. Bachchan for last 27 years. But now efforts have started and truth will be told to the world, that these persons carry boodstains on their hands and face.
Congress and BJP will not do anything. Your Akali Dal is a friend of BJP. Support Kiran Bedi and Arvind Kejriwal. They will arrest Sajjan Kumar within weeks.
amitabh’s approach to the akal takht may be proof of guilt. he knows that is the only place that he can get sikhs off his back. if he was truly innocent, he would approach the law courts and not the temporal seat of the sikhs.
I do not believe because his mother was a sikh (jassi).
I Agree with Lakhvir-Singh. If he was not guilty he should have fought the case against him in Australia rather than trying to use his influence to win over the sikhs by pleading his innosence and saying his mom was a sikh. Maybe he should ask himself if his mom would have approved his actions.
I don’t know Amitabh was involved or not but whole 1984 Sikh Genocide was planned by top Congress leadership. Even before Indira Gandhi’s death, Rajeev Gandhi and his advisors knew that Indira Gandhi will be punished for her attack on the Golden Temple that caused lots of destruction and thousands of innocent persons were killed. Even in old Sikh history, the Mogul rulers who attacked Golden Temple were punished for attacking Golden Temple and killing innocent persons. Knowing that Rajeev Gandhi and his close advisors had started planning on what to do whenever Indira Gandhi is killed. They had started making lists of Sikh houses and businesses etc. So when Indira Gandhi was killed on 31st Oct. and Rajeev Gandhi was sworn in as PM. So first thing done was to order Congress party leaders to arrange for mobs and give them lists of Sikhs house and business addresses. And give the mobs free hand to kill innocent Sikhs, burn their houses and businesses. Delhi Police Chief was ordered to remove all the Sikh policemen from their jobs and ordered them not to go out. Rest of the police was ordered either to close their eyes and give free hand to mobs or help mobs kill innocent persons. Anybody who believes that such orders were not issued, Can that person explain why there isn’t a single case where police acted against the mobs and tried to save innocent lives? There was no Lathi charge or tear gas etc used against the mobs. Only time Police acted was when Sikhs got togather to protect themselves. This happened in Tarlokpuri and Mongolpuri. Police of those areas showed up and told the Sikhs to disperse and go to their houses because they were violating Sec.144.(but police didn’t see mobs violating Sec.144) Sikhs were disarmed and sent to their houses and afterwards the mobs showed up and worst killings happened in those localities. Those police officers who disarmed and dispersed Sikhs, should be held responsible and given death sentences. But nobody acted against them because they were just following orders of their chief. Similarly congress leaders like HKL Bhagat, Kamal Nath, Tytler, Sajjan Kumar etc. played a big role in organising mobs and encourging them to kill innocent Sikhs. None of them were charged, infact some of them were rewarded with Ministerial positions by Rajeev Gandhi who openly justified the innocent killings by saying,” When big tree falls, it makes the earth shake.” It is a shame that Media failed to speak up against these planned innocent killings. In 27 years the Justice system controlled by the ruling Congress party Govt. has failed to punish the guilty and provide any justice to the victim families. So the top Congress leadership and ruling Govt. Admn. was responsible for 1984 Sikh Genocide killing thousands of innocent persons. The worst thing is that Media and the general public still can’t speak out against these innocent killings and demand justice for the victim families and punishment to the guilty persons.
I do believe he used that language, just because he has started using very clean language does not mean he never swore!
No matter what they say about us (Sikhs) in movies or TV shows, they hate us from the inside and yes he forgot his roots (Sikh mother).
Shameful act!
Forgive but NEVER forget!
1984 GENOCIDE will NEVER be forgotten!
you ppl saying it couldnt happen you do know he was on doordarshan tv inciting violence, and you do know that channells are required to save footage that they played, he can’t get away… then again indian govt. can play tricks with evidence if they wanted to, this is old known matter
Make the our judiciary system so power ful that no one escape from law and both how behind the delhi Genocide and killing of innocent people in buses ,roads etc burn the home of common people in patti , thatan tarn etc and destroy the temples should punish equaly. Please don’t make it communal , only suffer know the pain . Others are only doing the politice
I dont believe he used that language but fir bhi ager aisa hai to i agree wid kiran
Forgive but never FORGET!
He did it. Of course he did.
I personally don’t understand why the Jathedars refuse to respond as soon as possible. The longer they leave it the better chance of him using his influence over, for instance, Badal to replace them with fully corrupt people who will say that Bachchan is innocent.
