Detailed Solution

Gandhiji in 1919 decided to launch a nationwide satyagraha against the proposed Rowlatt Act.Despite the Indian members of the Imperial Legislative Council uniting in opposition, this Act had been hastily approved by the body. It granted the government the authority to suppress political activity and permitted the two-year detention of political detainees without charge. Mahatma Gandhi called for nonviolent civil disobedience beginning on April 6 with a hartal in opposition to such unjust laws. Numerous cities organised rallies, railroad workshop workers went on strike, and businesses shuttered. The British government chose to clamp down on nationalists in response to the popular uprising and its fear that it might disrupt transportation and communication networks like the trains and telegraph.
