Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Britishers introduced the Rowlatt Act in Feb 1919. The Imperial Legislative Council adopted this law in February 1919. This statute gave the British government the go-ahead to detain anyone suspected of engaging in terrorist activity. Additionally, it gave the government permission to hold such people who were arrested for up to two years without a trial. Finally, it gave the police permission to search a location warrantlessly. Gandhi and the other leaders called for a Hartal (suspension of work) to demonstrate Indians' opposition to this regulation, known as the Rowlatt Satyagraha.
