Indian Independence Movement - Key Events and Figures

• Champaran Satyagraha (1917): This was one of the earliest Gandhian struggles in India.
• Rajkumar Shukla: A local peasant from Champaran, he persuaded Mahatma Gandhi to visit the region and investigate the grievances of farmers against the oppressive indigo cultivation system imposed by British landlords. Gandhi's involvement marked his active entry into Indian politics.
• Jallianwala Bagh Massacre (1919): A brutal incident where unarmed Indian civilians were fired upon by British troops under the command of Brigadier-General Reginald Dyer.
• Hunter Commission (1919): Officially known as the 'Indian Disorders Inquiry Committee', this commission was appointed by the British government to investigate the events of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre and other disturbances in Punjab. The commission's report, though acknowledging the killings, largely absolved Dyer of direct responsibility, leading to widespread public outrage.
• Shimla Conference (1945): This conference was convened by the Viceroy of India, Lord Wavell, not Lord Mountbatten, to discuss proposals for the future constitution of India.
• Lord Mountbatten: He was the last Viceroy of India and played a key role in the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947. He was not associated with the Shimla Conference of 1945.
