INDIAN HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -K Gandhi began a crusade against the Rowlatt bill and set up Satyagraha Sabha on 24th February AD 1919 at Bombay.

Detailed explanation-2: -In response to the Rowlatt Act of 1919, passed by the Imperial Legislative Council, Gandhiji established the Satyagraha Sabha in the Bombay district of Maharashtra on 24 February 1919.

Detailed explanation-3: -This law was passed in March 1919 by the Imperial Legislative Council which gave them the power to arrest any person without any trial. To abolish this act, Gandhi and the other leaders called for a Hartal (suspension of work) to show Indians’ objection to this rule, called the Rowlatt Satyagraha.

Detailed explanation-4: -All nonofficial Indian members of the council (i.e., those who were not officials in the colonial government) voted against the acts. Mahatma Gandhi organized a protest movement that led directly to the Massacre of Amritsar (April 1919) and subsequently to his noncooperation movement (1920–22).
