'''''1984: India's Guilty Secret''''' is a book by Pav Singh published by Kashi Books in 2017. In it Singh includes an account by [[Man Mohan Bir Singh Talwar]] and argues that the violence against [[Sikh]]s in 1984 was not spontaneous but planned and led by Congress politicians. He criticises the use of the word "riot", saying it downplays the scale and intent of the attacks, which he views as a deliberate genocide.<ref name="Singh">{{cite web |last=Singh |first=Gary |date=11 February 2018 |title=A Brutal Corrective |url=https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/a-brutal-corrective/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250725121338/https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/a-brutal-corrective/ |archive-date=25 July 2025 |access-date=25 July 2025 |website=Los Angeles Review of Books}}</ref><ref name="Cheeran2018">{{cite news |last1=Cheeran |first1=John |date=23 January 2018 |title=Is 1984 India's guilty secret? |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/Arrackistan/is-1984-indias-guilty-secret/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250725121832/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/Arrackistan/is-1984-indias-guilty-secret/ |archive-date=25 July 2025 |access-date=25 July 2025 |work=The Times of India}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Riot or genocide? |url=https://www.the-tls.com/politics-by-region/asian-politics/riot-or-genocide |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250725122205/https://www.the-tls.com/politics-by-region/asian-politics/riot-or-genocide |archive-date=25 July 2025 |access-date=25 July 2025 |work=TLS}}</ref><br />
