The riots had left nearly 3,000 Sikhs killed, mostly in Delhi when the Congress was at the Centre.
“I have no confusion in my mind about that. It was a tragedy, it was a painful experience. You say that the Congress party was involved in that, I don’t agree with that. Certainly there was violence, certainly, there was a tragedy,” he had said.
