A murder occurred in Jallianwala Bagh on this day in 1919. Hundreds of people were killed in the massacre. This murder-e-aam shook the entire nation of India. It is not that murder was not common in India prior to this; many large murders were committed by the British in common India prior to this. However, the knowledge and understanding and awareness that came in the people of India after this massacre had never come before.
Great leaders like Maulana Muhammad Ali Jauhar, Shaukat Ali, B Amma, and Mohandas Gandhi travelled to every corner of India during the Khilafat and non-cooperation movement era. Bulk visited Bengal, Bihar, and even remote villages in central India after leaving Calcutta, Madras, Lahore, and Delhi.
Jallianwala Bagh was a battleground in the First World War. In all of these debates, Kill-e-Aam was both praised and condemned, and the story of "atrocities in Punjab" was repeatedly told. People were asked to cooperate in the Khilafat and non-cooperation movement in response to this atrocity. There was also a great deal of cooperation on the part of the people.
Dr. Saifuddin Kitchlew, one of the top five leaders of the Khilafat movement, gathered his supporters in Jallianwala Bagh and took pills.
Dr. Saifuddin Kitchlew organized a procession in Jallianwala Bagh on March 30, 1919, in protest of the Rowlatt Act, which drew over thirty thousand people. Following that, the strike on April 6th was also successful. The British government was in a panic. The best example of Hindu-Muslim unity was seen in Amritsar on April 9, 1919, on the day of Ram Navami, after which Dr. Saifuddin Kitchlew, along with the famous Punjab leader Dr. Satyapal Singh, was arrested under the Rowlatt Act and sent to anonymity, probably sent to Dharamsala. In protest against this arrest, many demonstrations were held, rallies were taken out. The British government imposed martial law in Amritsar and banned all public meetings, rallies.
Thousands of people shot at the British inside Jallianwala Bagh on April 13, 1919, in support of these people. The people who were shot were supporters of Dr. Saifuddin Kitchlew and Dr. Satpal Singh, who had gathered to demand Saifuddin and Satpal Singh's release. The British sentenced Saifuddin Kitchlew and Satyapal Singh to life in prison, but the martyrs' blood was not spent, and under public pressure, the British released both of them at the end of 1919. Dr. Saifuddin Kitchlew was only 31 years old at the time.
This same Saifuddin Kitchlew led the Khilafat movement and spread the 'Atrocities on Punjab' from the stage of Khilafat and Non-cooperation movement to the whole of India with the help of Ali Beradran and Gandhiji. It has been put in the mind of the people that even today that murder-e-mango is being done after a hundred years. Otherwise the killing of unarmed Indians has become common even in places like kisakhani, handicrafts, but who knows them?? Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London, has now apologized to the English people for the Jallianwala Bagh massacre, but no one is aware of the dozens of murders that occurred before and after the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. In any case, the death toll was higher than the Jallianwala Bagh massacre.
