Gen Dyer went home happily after he was discharged from the army for Jalianwalabagh. the english in india collected 25000 pounds for him. the house of lords, if i remember right, praised him for his "great services" to the british empire. he died of a disease. some indian disease, if i remember right.
the then governor of punjab, sir michael o'dwyer, was not so lucky. he was stalked for many years by Uddam Singh, who finally shot him in his churh in 1937. Uddam Singh was convicted and hanged.

A large no of indians in UK had adviced Udhamsingh to accept the crime ,plead guilty and request for mercy.Udhamsingh did accept that he killed odowyre but said he had not committed any crime but he had done the justice.
Udhamsingh killed Odowyre somewhere in 1937 in UK.
Only one week before he was killed odowyre had told in a public interview that indians r cowards and he never feared or anticipated any attack on him.
Udhamsingh's ashes were brought to india after freedom.
Madanlal dhingra and udhamsingh were the real MEN .They punished the british in England.
