2Jallianwala Bagh
Jallianwala Bagh is a historic public garden located in Amritsar, Punjab, India. It is infamous for the Jallianwala Bagh massacre that occurred on April 13, 1919, during the British colonial rule in India. On that day, British troops under the command of Colonel Reginald Dyer opened fire on a crowd of unarmed Indian civilians who had gathered in the garden for a peaceful protest against British policies. The massacre resulted in the deaths of hundreds of people and left many more injured. The incident had a profound impact on the Indian independence movement, fueling further resistance against British rule. Today, Jallianwala Bagh serves as a memorial to the victims of the massacre, reminding visitors of the struggles and sacrifices made during India's fight for freedom.
