The Vice-President also released coins of Rs 100 with "Centenary of Jallianwala Bagh Massacre" written on it and the memorial drawn on it. Jallianwala Bagh Massacre Centenary: 100 Years Ago, British Raj Committed Worst Bloodbath and Inflicted Most "Shameful Scar" on its History.
The Jallianwala Bagh massacre has emerged as a sensitive topic as it commemorates 100 years in 2019.
And the calls for an apology continue.
Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh on Sunday criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for politicizing Jallianwala Bagh massacre.
100 years ago today the British Brigadier General Reginald Dyer ordered his troops to open fire on a crowd of unarmed men, women and children gathered in a public garden in the Indian city of Amritsar. "Their memory inspires us to work even harder to build an India they would be proud of", Modi said.
"My own great grandfather, who was the prime minister for nearly a decade, had referred to this as one of the worst outrages in our whole history", he said. "This inhuman act of imperial might remains an indelible bloody stain on the canvas of recent Indian history", Naidu in his tribute said. However, she stopped short of issuing a formal apology for the tragic incident.
