How did the Jallianwala Bagh incident affect the Indian national movement?

Correct answer: It created deep anger against the brutality of British rule

The governing concept is the impact of colonial repression on nationalist consciousness. On 13 April 1919, troops fired on an unarmed gathering at Jallianwala Bagh, causing many deaths and injuries. The brutality shocked people and deepened distrust of British rule, strengthening the demand for national freedom. Thus option A is correct; the incident did not increase faith in colonialism or solve social and agrarian problems.
