Answers
Answer with Explanation:
The tragic incident of Jallianwala Bagh, which is also known as the Amritsar Massacre, happened in Amritsar on April 13, 1919. It was named after the Jallianwala Bagh, where on April 13, 1919, British, Indian Army soldiers started shooting at the crowd of unarmed and non-violent protesters (men, women, and children). Brigadier-General Reginald Dyer was in charge of the military commander of Amritsar who killed hundreds of men, women, children and many were injured during the gunfire (lasted about ten minutes).
The commission, called Hunter Commission was made by the British Government to investigate this Massacre, but it cleared General Dyer by mentioning that it was a mistake and found him not guilty. General Dyer was saved by the Hunter Commission in a way that they suspended him from his post and sent him to England.
In my opinion, he was saved and defended by the Commission. The basis was that Gandhi was also responsible for this incident not completely but partially, and on the base of this, General Dyer was saved by the Commission.
