520			_aThe revolutionaries in the cellular jail were not treated as political prisoners. They were called seditionists” or ‘anarchists’ and treated worse than ordinary criminals. The political parsons were frequently punished. Flogging, confinement in cells for six months, bar fetters, and standing handcuffs with a r3educed diet were resorted to now and then. Confinement in small cages was still works. Finally, bowing either to the general and popular demand of Indians or their constant agitation or because of its political wisdom, the British government deals red general amnesty for the political prisoners in the Andaman’s in 1920. Thereafter, the cellular jail was closed, and all the remaining political prisoners were taken back to the mainland by 1921. – Reproduced
