Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

5. Styles and
Influences
The Foo Fighters have a widely
recognised style of music, dipping into
Dave Grohl’s old days of playing Grunge
with hit former band, Nirvana.
The Foo Fighters also have a performing
style that feels quite relaxed and a ‘don’t
care attitude’, an aspect seen regularly in
the rock scene. This is shown through their
appearance in terms of their casual jeans
and t-shirt combo and rugged hair.
Dave Grohl has mentioned in many
interviews that a lot of his inspiration
behind his songs are politically based,
allowing the audience to interpret the
song’s lyrics differently as everyone has
6. Everlong -
Inspiration
Dave Grohl has mentioned in interviews
that the inspiration behind the song
‘Everlong’ was the bad habits and drug
addiction of former Nirvana member, Kurt
Cobain.
Grohl has also spoke about how he was at
his lowest point when writing this song,
taking him only 45mins write. Despite this,
the song has had renowned success,
making it one of their most famous and
influential songs.
7. Target Audience
Males and Females aged 16-30 in the
demographic groups D-B
In terms of interacting with their target
audience, the Foo Fighters have multiple
media platforms in which they can share
news and promote themselves i.e. twitter,
Facebook and their website. Therefore,
their target audience will be those who are
able to access and use the internet to
reach these platforms.
Audience would find the Foo Fighters on
TV and radio stations such as Kerrang and
Planet Rock
8. Music Videos
When it comes to their music videos, the
Foo Fighters tend to stick to a certain style
and pattern. After looking at a number of
different Foo Fighters videos I came to
conclusion that they are predominantly
narrative/performance based. These
narratives also add a certain degree of
humour to the videos, reinforcing the laid
back/casual style that is often seen with
alternative rock. This is clear in the music
video “Learn To Fly” in which the band are
dressed as multiple characters.
After looking at these videos it is clear that
the Foo Fighters image is that they don’t
take themselves to seriously but are also
passionate about their music.
