History
of Sunam |
| |
| |
Sunam is a
city and a municipality in Sangrur district in the
Indian state of Punjab. Sunam means the name with a
good reputation. This is the birthplace of the famous
patriot, Shahid Udham Singh who took revenge of the
massacre of innocent Indians by the British on April
13 in 1919 in JAHLLIAN WALA Bagh in Amritsar by
shooting O'Dwyer, in Caxton Hall in London on 13 March
1940 as he was the one who had ordered the shooting of
a large and peaceful meeting of the patriots in the
Bagh by using machine guns and killed hundreds of them
as the garden had just one narrow lane to enter and it
was surrounded by walls with no |
|
| |
exit gates
elsewhere. The machine guns were placed in the only
escape lane which was actually both, the way in and
out and many in the gathering there jumped into the
famous well in the garden to save their lives and
drowned. Thousands of people pay their homage to the
killed patriots daily by bowing to this garden, the
well and by remembering Shahid Udham Singh of Sunam. |
