What they didn't show is he individually corrected the soldiers who were missing the shots and ordered them to shoot at the densest section of the crowd so that more people can get killed in less time and Bullets ( Remember in RRR).
The podcast mentions that the soldiers who carried out the Jallianwala Bagh massacre were Indians. However, this is not quite true. General Dyer knew that Punjabi police or any local person would not be willing to carry out such an order, so he deliberately called in Gurkha regiments from Nepal. There were 25 Gurkha soldiers and 25 Baluch soldiers in the regiment. The Baluch regiments were from Sindh, which had already made up its mind to be a separate nation at the time. This was due to British policies in 1907 and 1909. So, while the soldiers were technically Indian, they were not connected to the Punjabi people or sympathetic to India.
There is alot of diversity in india and the history is very complex ,I don't blame the girl but she could not explain the reason why indian shoot indians as most of people don't know only Northern side people attached to relatively gras root india know about complexities of Indian history as mostly people in big cities go to English medium schools they don't read about this stuff. In reality the empire was able to capture and rule india for so long, by using the diversity against India the soldiers brought that day were not from Punjab (state of massacre) instead were most brutal ethenicity from northern most parts with historical troubles with that area and that was the framework for British Indian forces they always employed people from completely different areas and india is such a hugely diverse country that even now people can't understand eachother from distant states. They have always abused the differences and lead to huge divides in various sections of societies by making separate laws , prerequisite on the basis of religion,cast, language which lead to segregation of various groups who were living in coherence under same roofs for centuries. Another reason is the difference of study syllabus for different states as this was very imp event for Punjab's history ,so we study about it in history classes similarly every state has their own jalainwala bagh and freedom struggle they read about them. That's why actually a huge portion of India even today don't know about him.
Now watch ... Best horror suspense movie ever made in INDIA ... **TUMBBAD** Imdb 8.2 Runtime...1hr 45 mins Literally one of the best movie (horror) ever made. Listed in IMDB top 200. TWIST WILL LITERALLY EXPL@DE YOUR MIND. **It is beyond horror.**
Actually I would consider tumbbad more thriller rather than horror although there are horror elements in it but it's not a proper horror movie but yeah I agree it's the best work of our Indian cinema in this kind of genre
What they didn't show is he individually corrected the soldiers who were missing the shots and ordered them to shoot at the densest section of the crowd so that more people can get killed in less time and Bullets ( Remember in RRR).
Thanks guys for the review, love and respect from India

Now you know 0.01% history of British brutality in India.
Soldiers were not Indians, they were nepali gorkhas from nepal.
There was no indian soldier in jallianwala bagh during massacre.
Hiya! Seems like you have read up on this. Would you please suggest some books I can read on Indian freedom fighters?
