In 1984, when the Sikh riots hit the country, Parminder’s father, Raghubir Singh, was stabbed and their property was destroyed. The district authorities, following a Supreme Court directive, today paid supplementary compensation packages to seven riot victims, as allocated by the Centre to the states. The East Singhbhum deputy commissioner today distributed cheques worth over Rs 7.74 lakh to the dependants of the riot victims."
