Sir, – The generally accepted casualty total of the 1919 Amritsar Massacre is around 1,500 deaths. While this is an indefensible figure in itself, it is far removed from the 74,000 victims quoted in “Looking East: Exploring 75 years of Ireland-India ties” (News, July 22nd). – Yours, etc,
ARTHUR BRADY,
Rathfarnham,
