Gandhi didnt hear of the massacre until June. He took his actions After that. He supported the construction of two monuments in remembrance of the people that died (one of them was the well people had jumped in to try and save themselves). He then called upon for national satyagraha. This included his 'Non-Cooperation campaign'. He believed that the limited 351 British officials in India, could not manage to govern the 300, 000, 000 Indians living in India if they simply refused to cooperate. This campaign included the boycott of foreign goods, the spinning of cotton, and hartals. This worked for quite a while and for some time people thought the British were going to have to leave, but then some Indians started getting restless with the slow progress and violence started to break out. they mobbed some british officials into a flaming building till they were burnt to death. Because Gandhi's strongest moral was no-violence, he called off the campaign straight away.
hope that helped...Essy.p.s the amritsar massacre was in 1919, not 1920. There was only one memorial built to honor those who passed on.
