After surviving the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre, Sardar Udham Singh spent 21 years carrying that trauma, tracked down former Punjab Lieutenant Governor Michael O’Dwyer, and assassinated him at Caxton Hall in London in 1940.

"Your conduct, your conduct – I am talking about the British government. I have nothing against the English people at all. I have more English friends living in England than I have in India. I have great sympathy with the workers of England. I am against the Imperialist Government."

Working class hero.

We should celebrate him here in the UK as well as in India 💪
