The British military officer, General Dyer, on April 13, 1919 entered the Jallianwala Bagh (Amritsar) with his troops, where people had gathered to peacefully protest against the arrest of the two nationalist leaders, Satya Pal and Dr Saifuddin Kitchlew. Without so much as a warning to the people to disperse, he ordered his troops to fire at the unarmed crowd.
The onslaught lasted ten minutes till their ammunition was exhausted, after which the British soldiers left. A total of 1,650
rounds were fired, and more than 500 people were killed and murdered. The exact number of casualties remains unknown.
On the morning of Baisakhi, Colonel Reginald Dyer had announced the implementation of a curfew throughout Amritsar
and a ban on all processions that even prohibited a group of 4 or more people to meet publicly. At about 12:40 PM, Dyer
received confidential information about the meeting taking place at Jallianwala Bagh that may result in riots and protests.
