the government passed the Rowlatt Act in March 1919 which authorised the government to arrest any person without warrant and to detain him/ her without trial for two years. There were massive protests and demonstrations by the Indian people against this measure of the government. Gandhi also took very active part in this.
He started a Satyagraha Sabha which campaigned against this act asking people to disobey it and court arrest. He also gave a call for countrywide hartal which was observed in various places on different dates. But it was generally a success.
The government responded with repression. Gandhi had decided to simultaneously launch the non- cooperation movement at an all-India level. In September 1920, in a special session of the All India Congress Committee held in Calcutta, it was decided to launch the movement.
