Show answer and solution
Answer: (B) The Jallianwala Bagh massacre
After General Dyer's firing on an unarmed gathering at Amritsar on 13 April 1919, the government set up the Disorders Inquiry Committee under Lord Hunter. Congress appointed its own inquiry committee with Gandhi as a member. The other events happened later (1921-25) and were not examined by the Hunter Committee.
