This is done because of the terrible war repercussions. This includes heavy taxation, huge number of dead and wounded soldiers and inflation. This results in the formation of the Rowlatt Committee in 1919. This commission has a legislative act that allowed some of the political cases without the jury and imprisoned the suspects without any proofs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time of the Rowlatt Act, Mahatma Gandhi came with the revolution. This took demonstrations at the residence of Amritsar Deputy Commissioner to release 2 Indian Independence Movement Saifuddin Kitchlew and Satya Pal. For this, there was a violent protest the resulted in burning the town hall and the railway station. It resulted in many deaths which also included the deaths of European government officials and also the civilians. For this, the city of Amritsar and also parts of Punjab faced curfew, where the government of Punjab decided to restrict public gatherings and prohibited assembling of more people gatherings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Jallianwala Bagh Tragedy on 13<sup>th<\/sup>\nApril 1919<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/tripnetra.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/640px-BulletMarks.jpg\" alt=\"Jallianwala Bagh Tragedy\" class=\"wp-image-8572\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tripnetra.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/640px-BulletMarks.jpg 900w, https:\/\/tripnetra.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/640px-BulletMarks-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tripnetra.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/640px-BulletMarks-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tripnetra.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/640px-BulletMarks-740x493.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>13<sup>th<\/sup> April 1919 is regarded as the beginning of New Year for Sikhs and celebrated as Baisakhi Festival all over Punjab.
