Abstract

Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri praised the government's decision to relax job norms for victims of the 1984 anti-Sikh riots, demanding an apology from the Congress for the violence that claimed 3,000 lives. The move to lower the minimum educational qualification for government jobs from Class 10 to Class 8 for riot victims is aimed at providing more opportunities for Sikh families. Puri's comments are part of the BJP's efforts to showcase initiatives benefiting the Sikh community, including the Citizenship Amendment Act and reopening of cases related to the riots.
