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.
