Jallianwala
Bagh. 13 April 1919. Twenty-two-year-old Nanak Singh joins the mass of peaceful
protestors agitating against the Rowlatt Act. What then turns out to be one of
the worst atrocities perpetrated by the British Raj and a turning point in
India’s independence movement, also becomes a life-changing experience for
Nanak Singh, who survives the massacre, unconscious and unnoticed among the
hundreds of corpses.
After going
through the traumatic experience, Nanak Singh proceeds to write Khooni
Vaisakhi, a long poem in Punjabi. The poem was a scathing critique of the
British Raj and was banned soon after its publication.
Khooni Vaisakhi
is not only a poignant piece of protest literature but also a historical
artifact and a resurrected witness to how Sikhs, Hindus and Muslims came
together to stand up to colonization and oppression in one of India’s darkest
moments.
