The Akali movement was a campaign to bring reform in the gurdwaras in India during the early 1920s. In 1921, the Akalis turned their focus to the gurdwara at Nankana Sahib, the birthplace of the first Sikh Guru Nanak. The gurdwara was under the control of a mahant called Narain Das, who was accused of allowing immoral activities in the gurdwara. When a jatha of over 100 Sikh made an unscheduled trip to Nankana on 20 February 1921 without any intention yet of taking it, the guards of the Mahant opened fire without warning, killing 130 people in what came to be known as the Nankana massacre (Saka Nankana).
