Indira Gandhi, Prime Minister of India, was assassinated on 31 October 1984 by her Sikh bodyguards as she walked in the garden of her New Delhi home. It appeared that her murder was an act of revenge for her orders to storm the Sikh’s holiest shrine at Amristar in 1983. Six years later, on 21 May 1991 in Sriperumbudur, near Madras, her eldest son Rajiv was also assassinated by Khan separatists in a bomb explosion.
