Answer:

-The Sedition Act of 1870 was arbitrary because the

definition of sedition was very broad and according to it,

the British could arrest and detain any person they

wanted. The Sedition Act of 1870 contradicted the rule of

law because there was no scope for holding a proper trial

of adjudge whether a person was indeed guilty of the

offence he had been convicted for or not. The Act

permitted arresting Indians without due trial if they

protected or criticised the British Government.
