Indira Gandhi was assassinated on October 31, 1984, by her bodyguards, Satwant Singh and Beant Singh. They were motivated by anger over her decision to launch Operation Blue Star, which aimed to remove Sikh militants from the Golden Temple in Amritsar, a significant religious site for Sikhs. The operation resulted in significant casualties and damage, leading to outrage among the Sikh community and ultimately prompting her assassination.
