Operation Bluestar: Britain's role 'very limited'

London: The British foreign secretary William Hague on Tuesday revealed that UK had a very limited role in the Amritsar massacre of 1984.Hague informed the British MPs that Margaret Thatcher did not play any role




The probe also examined concerns raised by British MPs and by the Sikh community that parliament may have been misled about Operation Bluestar or that the decision to provide advice may have been linked to UK commercial interests.

“The report finds no evidence to substantiate either of these allegations,” Hague said. The inquiry did not find any evidence that the provision of British advice was linked to “potential defense or helicopter sales, or to any other policy or commercial issue”.
