Komagata Maru incident
1914 exclusion of migrants in Vancouver
The Komagata Maru incident was an immigration dispute in which passengers aboard the Japanese steamship Komagata Maru, also called Guru Nanak Jahaz by its passengers, were denied entry in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, on 23 May 1914. Most of the 376 passengers were denied entry despite being British subjects under Canada's continuous journey regulation, due to suspected links to revolutionaries in India.
