A B C D E F Past MUN Experience ( if any ) The Rohingya Muslims are an ethnic group which used to be situated in Myanmar, formerly known as Burma. Since the 1970's, with severe political instability in Myanmar, they have been denied citizenship in their home country and have currently been given the status of refugees. Their dire situation reached a peak in 2017, when the military drove them out of Myanmar and attempted to ethnically cleanse their Buddhist majority nation. They were deprived of basic human rights- their villages destroyed; their women subjected to atrocious gang rapes. As a result, many of the Rohingyas have fled to Bangladesh, where they are situated in the world’s largest refugee camp. Write a report in no more than 350 words, detailing the history of the brutality imposed upon the Rohingyas and their inhumane conditions in the refugee camps. In the summer of 1984, Operation Blue Star was imposed by the Indian government which aimed at addressing the militant insurgency led by Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale and his associates. These militants had taken refuge in the Golden Temple Complex situated in Amritsar, Punjab deemed as one of the holiest sites in Sikhism. The operation was prompted by escalating violence and demands for an independent Sikh state, Khalistan. The Indian government, under Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, decided to use force to remove the militants and restore order. The operation involved a large-scale military assault on the Golden Temple, which intended to target Bhindranwale and his followers who were armed and entrenched within the complex leading to numerous casualties including both civilians and militants and caused substantial harm to the sacred site, revered by millions of Sikhs worldwide. In no more than 400 words, write an article that explores the historical context of Operation Blue Star, including the political and social factors that led up to the operation. Additionally evaluate the broader implications of the operation on Indian politics, and its impact on national security, communal relations and political dynamics in Punjab Previous Next
