What happened in 1984 not riots, it was genocide, says Diljit Dosanjh

Diljit Dosanjh's upcoming film "Jogi" is set during the 1984 anti-Sikh massacre, an event the actor-singer insists should be called a "genocide". Violence erupted in Delhi and other parts of the country after former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was assassinated by her Sikh bodyguards on October 31, 1984.
