David Cameron in India as he stops short of an apology for 1919 massacre at Amritsar

The Prime Minister echoed the words of Winston Churchill as he paid tribute to the 379 innocent Indians slaughtered in the Amritsar massacre.
Mr Cameron concluded his visit to India yesterday with a trip to the Golden Temple, the holiest site for Sikhs, and the Jallianwala Bagh gardens – where soldiers under Brigadier Reginald Dyer fired 1,650 shots into a crowd of 20,000 unarmed protesters in 1919.
