Today is the day when many passengers were killed by the British government.
The event of #KomagataMaru is an important landmark in the history of Asia in Southern America. …
…The government of Canada and the white people here did not want the black people to come. To stop the entry of Indians in Canada, the governor general passed the order number 220 under the law of 38(a), which came into force on 9th May, 1910.
According to the law, for…
…everyone who has come to Canada, it has to be transported to Canada by Sea from his country and every upcoming person should have a $200 million currency. With this order, it became impossible for Indians to go to Canada, because no flights from India would be directly on…
…that time.
A scheme was introduced by the Panjabi trader, Gurdit Singh Sarhali Ji, living in Singapore to solve this problem. He built a company on a commercial street named after “Guru Nanak Shipping” company and under this they renting ships. The ship sailed from…

On 26 September 1914, the ship reached the #Hooghly river and the British Tyrant…
…government not allowed the passengers to enter it in our own land. They were taking the boat to Calcutta, and kept the passengers confined for 3 days.
That 's so awkward that British and Canadian both government had upsetting the Indian people when they arrived, first at…
…Vancouver then in India own Country. The British Government had to take down the passengers from the ship on 29th September 1914 and arrested them. When the government did not release, conflict between the British officials and the people was formed. When British officials…
…not released the passengers, and the passengers opposed it bitterly. Then, British tyrant government shooted on the passengers, in which 22 passengers were martyred, 25 injured, 202 arrested, 62 released, and 28 were missing.
