Sir Sidney Arthur Taylor Rowlatt was an English lawyer and judge, best remembered for his controversial presidency of the Rowlatt Committee, a sedition committee appointed in 1918 by the British Indian Government to evaluate the links between political terrorism in India, especially Bengal and the Punjab, and the German government and the Bolsheviks in Russia. The committee gave rise to the Rowlatt Act, an extension of the Defence of India Act 1915.
Rowlatt Act 1919 authorised the Government:
To arrest and imprison any person without trial in a court of law.
To demand security from any person, impose restriction on residence, curb freedom of activities, to search house and arrest any person, at any place.
