      Decent attempt, your content is good..too much focus on Bhindranwale though..talk about Khalistan and communal movement as one of the reasons and move on..you can also mention things like economic crisis, migrants entering Punjab, also talk about reorganisation of the state which led to border disputes in more detail, there you can also mention about distribution of river waters of Satluj, Ravi and Beas (Punjab got only 23% which created resentment among farmers).
      Other points are good in causes, try to cover more dimensions and consolidate content related to one issue under one point.
      Government response part is fine, Operation Blue Star, Black Thunder should be mentioned in this part. Also , mention some provisions of Punjab Accord, instrumental in bringing peace. In 15 markers, some details will be expected.
      Intro and conclusion are fine.
      Keep practicing. 🙂
