PM Modi pays homage to martyrs of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre
Posting pictures on Twitter, the Prime Minister said, "Saluting the martyrs of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. Their valour & heroism will never be forgotten."
The Jallianwala Bagh massacre or the Amritsar massacre took place in 1919, as a group of nonviolent protesters were killed by the then British rulers.
The incident mobilised the Indian freedom movement and also led to Rabindranath Tagore renouncing his Knighthood.
