Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Dominic Grieve (Conservative), on Tuesday, 9 November 2004, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 67 members in total.


ANNIVERSARY OF ANTI-SIKH POGROMS

That this House remembers with sadness the 20th anniversary of the November 1984 anti-Sikh pogroms when thousands of innocent Sikhs were killed or injured across India; notes with pleasure the many positive changes that have since taken place in India where the current Prime Minister is a Sikh; and expresses the hope that the Government of India will continue to pursue the path of reconciliation in relation to those events by instituting an inquiry into them that can bring closure to the victims and relatives of those who suffered at that time.
