Against Security advise and personal fear she relied on her political sense. If she was to withdraw her sikh guards while storming the gurdwara it would have been seen as an attack on sikhs, and a distrust of the sikhs. She was trying to poject that her orders to storm the gurdwara was only to go after the militants and not as an affront against sikism. And to bolster that image people could see that her most trusted guards were sikhs whom she retained.

If at all she should have made such security moves much ahead, and should have replaced atleast one of the two guards.
