Jalianwala Bagh

Jallianwala Bagh is a historic park in Amritsar, India, where a tragic event occurred in 1919. British troops, under General Dyer’s orders, opened fire on thousands of unarmed Indians protesting colonial rule, killing hundreds and injuring many more. This massacre shocked the world and intensified the Indian independence movement. Today, Jallianwala Bagh serves as a memorial to those who lost their lives, featuring a museum and a memorial wall. It stands as a powerful reminder of the struggle for freedom and the importance of human rights.
