Answer:
Explanation:
General Dyer opened fire on the peaceful gathering at Jallianwala Bagh on 13th April, 1919 as General Dyer wanted to enforce martial law very strictly in Amritsar.
On 13th of April, 1919, on the day of Vaisakhi, thousands of people gathered to protest against the Rowlett Act at Jallianwala Bagh near Golden Temple in Amritsar. The Britishers did not like this and one of the British official General Michael O Dyer started indiscriminate firing on all those gathered there.
More than a thousand people and children were also killed in this accident and it is known as the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre.
