Detailed Solution

The Rowlatt Act of February 1919 was a piece of law adopted by the Imperial Legislative Council, which governed British India.
It permitted the trial of political cases without a jury and, in some circumstances, the imposition of a punishment without a hearing. This violated the citizens' fundamental human rights and was profoundly anti-democratic. Unsurprisingly, the populace fiercely opposed it. All around the country, there were organised large-scale protests and demonstrations. Shops were shuttered, and railroad workers went on strike. Many folks started to boycott the government institutes, Some local leaders were detained for their involvement in these protests, and Gandhiji was barred from entering Delhi.
