What did the British do on the 12th April 1919?

Answer 1

On April 12, 1919, British authorities in India responded to growing unrest and protests against colonial rule, particularly in Punjab. This day marked an escalation in tensions, leading to the imposition of martial law and heightened military presence in the region. The British actions were part of a broader crackdown on dissent, which would culminate in the tragic Jallianwala Bagh massacre a few days later, on April 13, where British troops killed hundreds of unarmed Indian civilians.
