Jallianwala Bagh

Jallianwala Bagh is a historic public garden in Amritsar, India, known for the tragic massacre on April 13, 1919. British troops, under General Dyer, opened fire on a large gathering of unarmed Indians protesting repressive British laws, resulting in the deaths of hundreds and injuring many more. This event galvanized Indian independence movements and highlighted the brutality of colonial rule. Today, Jallianwala Bagh serves as a memorial, reminding visitors of the sacrifices made for India's freedom and the ongoing struggle against oppression.
