today is jallianwalla bagh day. april 13, 1919

1600 bullets, 1579 casualties.

and the british are still not willing to accept their own monstrousness. the british queens' husband, philip, who died last week, said when visiting jallianwalla bagh that he thought the deaths were "exaggerated". how did he know? why, the son of reginald dyer, who ordered the shooting, had told him. 

my old piece on jallianwalla bagh. from 1998. https://www.rediff.com/news/1998/apr/13rajeev.htm
