About the Jallianwala Bagh massacre

The Jallianwala Bagh massacre occurred on April 13, 1919, when a significant assembly of individuals convened at Jallianwala Bagh in Amritsar, Punjab, to protest the Rowlatt Act and the detention of pro-Indian leaders Saifuddin Kitchlew and Satyapal.

In reaction to this public demonstration, General R.E.H. Dyer encircled the crowd with Gurkha and Sikh infantry regiments. He subsequently commanded them to open fire on the gathering, which continued until their ammunition was nearly depleted, at which point they were instructed to cease firing. The tragic event resulted in thousands of casualties, both dead and injured.
