According to Dubey, the letter confirms the presence of British military officers in Amritsar during the 1984 operation. “In 1984, Indira Gandhi launched an attack on the Golden Temple in collaboration with Britain, with British army officers present in Amritsar at that time. For Congress, the Sikh community is merely a toy,” he wrote.
