Jallianwala Bagh Massacre

➖➖➖➖

On 13th April, 1919 , the infamous Jallianwala Bagh massacre took place. On Hindi large crowd gathered in the enclosed brown of Jallianwala Bagh. Some came to protest against the government's new repressive measures. Other had come to attend the annual Baisakhi Fair. Being from outside the city, many villagers were unaware of the martial law that have been imposed. General Dyer entered the area, blocked the exit points and is opened fire on the crowd, killing hundreds of people. His object, as he declared later was to ' produce moral effect ', to create in the minds of satyagrahis, a feeling of terror and awe.

a. Against the Rowlatt Act rallies were organized,

the railway workshop workers went on strike

and the shops were closed down. The British

administration got alarmed and were scared about

the disruption of the communication lines such

as the railways and the telegraph. To suppress

the nationalists the British administration picked

up the local leaders and barred Gandhiji from

entering Delhi. On 10th April 1919, the police

opened fire in Amritsar on a peaceful procession

and Martial law was imposed.

b. On 13th April 1919, huge crowd had gathered in

the Jallianwalla Bagh. The crowd had two different

objectives. Some of them gathered to protest

the new repressive measures of the government

whereas others gathered to attend the annual

Baisakhi fair. Those who came from outside city

were not aware of the martial law. General Dyer

entered in the ground, closed the exit points and

opened fire in which hundreds of innocent people

were killed. This was basically done to create a

feeling of terror in the minds of Satyagrahis.

c. This infamous incident resulted in strikes, clashes

with the police and the government buildings were

attacked. This reaction of Indians was brutally

suppressed by the government as the Satyagrahis

were forced to rub their nose on the ground, crawl on streets and do salute to all the Sahibs, people

were beaten up and villages were bombed.
