In which year was the Rowlatt Act passed by the British government in India? [#2457]

The Rowlatt Acts were a series of legislative acts passed by the Imperial Legislative Council in British India in March 1919. These acts, officially known as the Anarchical and Revolutionary Crimes Act, aimed to curb growing nationalist movements in India following World War I. They granted the police extensive powers to arrest and detain individuals without trial for suspected revolutionary activities. The Rowlatt Acts were widely opposed by Indian leaders and the public, who viewed them as oppressive and a denial of fundamental civil liberties. This widespread opposition led to significant protests, including Mahatma Gandhi's first nationwide satyagraha.

The Kheda Satyagraha was a nonviolent civil disobedience movement led by Mahatma Gandhi in the Kheda district of Gujarat in 1918. The movement aimed to support the demands of the local farmers who were facing severe economic hardship due to widespread crop failure caused by drought and famine. They appealed to the British government to waive the land revenue for that year, as they were unable to pay. Gandhi, along with Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and other leaders, organized the farmers to peacefully resist the tax collection, ultimately leading to some concessions from the government.
