About Sardar Udham:

Udham Singh avenged the Jallianwala Bagh massacre by shooting Michael O’Dwyer in London, in March 1940. This is the story behind this fact – a tale of carrying an unhealed wound for 21 years, of unrelenting resolve and resilience, the distinct journey of ‘Sardar Udham’. In 1931, Udham escaped from India and made his way into the mountains of Afghanistan, eventually reaching London via the sea in 1933-34. In London, he spent the most decisive 6 years of his life, to re-ignite the revolution begun by his guru, Bhagat Singh, waiting patiently, to avenge the Jallianwala Bagh tragedy, to kill the man at the helm of affairs in Punjab, Michael O’Dwyer. And in that single-minded pursuit, gladly sacrificed his life.
