'''Amritsar Massacre''' or '''Jallianwallah Bagh Massacre''' occured on 13 April 1919, when over 5,000 unarmed locals, who had gathered at Jallianwala Bagh (garden), [[Amritsar]] were fired upon by British Indian Army troops. The crowd was protesting the recently passed Rowlatt Act.

Around 90 troops under the command of Brigadier-General Reginald Dyer fired upon the gathering without giving any warning. Once the firing started, there was no escape from the garden as the main exit was blocked by the troops. The troops only stoped firing once they ran out of ammunition.
