The men who came back from North America in 1914 and 1915 and were not hanged mostly went to prison, many to the Andamans, for terms of ten to twenty years.
Those who came out in the 1920s and 1930s went into the Kirti Kisan Party, the Congress, the communist movement and the peasant organisations, and a number were jailed again.
In 1959 the survivors built the Desh Bhagat Yaadgar Hall at Jalandhar with subscriptions from their own community. It holds the movement's records, its newspaper files, photographs and personal papers, and it is run by a trust of their descendants.
It is the only museum in Punjab built by the people it commemorates, and it exists because a group of old men in the 1950s decided that nobody else was going to do it.
It runs an annual mela in late October and publishes on the movement.
Anyone researching the Ghadar movement, the Babbar Akalis or the Punjab left starts there, and it is a building in Jalandhar that most people in Jalandhar have not been inside.
Sohan Singh Bhakna Ji himself lived until 1968 and was active in peasant organising into his eighties, having spent sixteen years in jail. He is the through-line between the Ghadar movement and the Punjab left.
The Andamans produced their own literature: prison memoirs written afterward in Punjabi describing the cellular jail, the hunger strikes, and the men who did not come back.
Several of them wrote memoirs in Punjabi. That literature is the largest first person account of a revolutionary movement produced anywhere in India and almost none of it is in English.
