The given statement is false. The infamous Jallianwala Bagh incident or massacre occurred on 13 April 1919. The background of the incident was that the country was protesting against the unjust law called the Rowlatt Act of 1919. The protests were intense in Punjab, and martial law was imposed. On 13 April, a massive crowd of men, women, and children gathered in the Jallianwala Bagh, some to protest against the government's repressive measures, others celebrating the Baisakhi festival. General Dyer got wind of the public gathering, entered the area, blocked the only exit, and opened fire at the unarmed crowd, killing hundreds. Hence the correct statement would be, On 13 April 1919, the infamous Jallianwala Bagh incident took place.
