That outrage was subsequently compounded by anger at the public authorities' supposed inability to make a sufficient move against those capable, notably Gen. Reginald Dyer, who had directed the soldiers engaged in the slaughter. As a result, the Non-Cooperation programme was endorsed at the Congress session in Nagpur in December 1920.
