Having suffered severe casualties, the infantry were driven back, and as a last resorts -with approval from Delhi-tanks were ordered in. The Akal Takht was virtually reduced to rubble. Its is doubtful if Mrs Gandhi weould have initiated Operation Blue Star had she known how bloody and devastating would be the consequences of that 24- hour conflict.
