When I had newly taken Amrit we were living in Netaji Nagar New Delhi.I was in the first year of my college.An elderly Gursikh told me to be at Gurudwara at 5AM sharp for prabhat pheri(an early morning group singing of Shabad kirtan at the house of various Gurmukhs prior to Gurupurab).He asked me to be punctual and motivated me by saying that a Khalsa always honours his words.I reached there at 5AM exact only to see that the Gurudwara was burnt,Nishan Sahib broken and the khanda of Nishan Sahib turned over and over again as if it were a thin foil(It was 1st November 1984).I reached back home unhurt as the town was asleep due to the activites that could have been carried out by the people till late on the previous night.They were probably having a short nap.We remained unhurt.But in the evening of 2nd November(or may be 1st November) our window pane was smashed by a stone.My father was posted at Vishakhapatnam.I, my mother,elder brother and the eldest sister were numb.Ten minutes passed and nothing happened.We gathered courage and looked outside.No one was there either.We went outside to find out but did not see anyone.Those 20 minutes were equal to what I cannot say.
