Corrections are welcome
This website states dates, names and sources as precisely as the published record allows, and it marks the places where accounts disagree. If you can point to a documented error — ideally with a reference — it will be corrected. The same applies to images: if you hold historical material relating to Bismil, the Kakori case or the memorials, the archive would be glad to hear from you.
What is listed here. Only the telephone number and email address above. This website publishes no postal address, office hours, organisation name or additional contact channels, because none have been supplied — and inventing them would be no better than inventing a date.
