At least 114 grenades have been found by the Golden Temple in the city of Amritsar in northern India, police say.

A Sikh pilgrim is said to have found the grenades and told police. Officials do not believe they presented a danger.

Police say the grenades are rusting and old and may have been left behind in 1984 when troops stormed the complex.

The controversial Operation Bluestar was launched by the army to flush out Sikh separatists militants hiding in the shrine, the holiest in Sikhism.
