Answer
The Dharam Yudh Morcha, or the "Battle for Religious Justice," was launched by Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale and the Akali Dal in 1982. The Morcha was a protest against the Indian government's policies towards Sikhs, particularly its refusal to grant Chandigarh to Punjab and its alleged interference in Sikh religious affairs. The Morcha quickly escalated into violence, with Bhindranwale and his followers taking up arms against the Indian government.
