On 13 April 1919, a group of Indians had gathered to peacefully protest against the Rowlatt Act and the arrest of 2 leaders. They were unarmed and had women, children, and pilgrims who had come to Amritsar to www.gradeup.co 37 celebrate Baisakhi. Colonel Dyer arrived with his troops and opened fire. Many died due to fire or due to the stampede. Some of the Britishers celebrated the act while others such as Churchill condemned it and called it a monstrous act. The government of India formed a Hunter commission to look into this matter. Dyer appeared before the Commission but said that he does not regret his action. He was relieved of his command and was prohibited from being appointed in India ever again.
