<h2>Heya, Buddy !! </h2>
The Rowlatt act was introduced to suppress any kind of political activities and detainment of people for up to two years over the suspicion of terrorist activities. The British Government decided to launch this act on Indians to suppress the feeling of nationalism. On 10th April, British Army openly fired on a peaceful procession of people.
- It provoked massive attacks on various buildings and institutions of the British Government. Then Mahatma Gandhi decided to launch a nationwide satyagraha against this act.
- All these events resulted in the imposition of Martial Law.
- On 13th April, an incident of Jallianwala Bagh massacre took place. People unaware of the imposition of the law, assembled in the Jallianwa Bagh.
- The General Dyer openly fired people and left no one. Therefore there were a number of reasons for the outrage against the Rowlatt act. First, it was passed by the Imperial Legislative Council even after opposition from Indians.
- Second, it gave immeasurable power to the British Government to suppress any kind of political activity. Third, the Jallianwala Bagh massacre.
