“A few of the devotees said that they were shown videos of Operation Blue Star and were subtly encouraged to take revenge,” said a senior BSF official. “The objective is to motivate a few of them to return to India with a charged-up sense of grievance and engage in anti-India activities,” he added.“We have got reports that the authorities in Pakistan are assuring devotees of full support if they decide to act against India,” said the BSF sources.They further said that in the past, the BSF had verbally objected to Pakistan Rangers showing such “provocative” videos. After these objections were raised, the authorities in the neighbouring country briefly stopped the screenings of the such “inflammatory” videos, but have now resumed.In order to counter this negative anti-India propaganda by Pakistan and develop a sense of patriotism among the pilgrims, the BSF was forced to devise constructive measures.
