The Komagata Maru incident took place in 1914 when a Japanese steamship carrying 376 prospective Punjabi immigrants attempted to immigrate to Canada. However, most of them were denied entry due to racially restrictive Canadian immigration laws but the ship's arrival in Vancouver provoked strong anti-Asian backlash. Likewise, the passengers were forced to return to India which led to an altercation between authorities and passengers resulted in 22 deaths.
