Answer:
Rallies were organised in various cities, workers went on strike and shops
closed down.
Local leaders were picked up from Amritsar and Mahatma Gandhi was
barred from entering Delhi.
Alarm by popular upsurge and scared that lines of communication such as
the railways and telegraph would be disrupted, the British government
decided to clamp down the nationalists.
On 10th April the police in Amritsar fired upon a peaceful procession
provoking widespread attacks on banks, post offices and railway stations.
Martial law was imposed, and General Dyer took command.
