Mahatma Gandhi became one of the greater admirers of Sikhs and Punjabis for their non-violent agitations and unparalleled sacrifices the atrocities and violence perpetrated on the peace loving people of Punjab by the British like Jallianwala Bagh and draconian laws imposed following the passage Rowlatt Act in Punjab made Gandhi an opponent of the British from being a cooperator during the first war years.
