Answer:

The Rowlatt act was introduced to suppress any kind of political activities and detainment of people for up to two years over the suspicion of terrorist activities. The British Government decided to launch this act on Indians to suppress the feeling of nationalism.

Answer:

People were enraged by the Rowlatt Act in 1919 because of the following reasons:

  • The Rowlatt Act curbed the basic fundamental rights of the citizens.
  • This Act strengthened Police powers.
  • The Act allowed the arrestment of people without due trial.
  • When revolters protested against this Act, the British Government tried to suppress the revolts with brutal measures.
  • One of the brutal ways in which the British tried to suppress the revolt was the "Jallianwaala Bagh" massacre.

All these things led to the agitation of the people against the Rowlatt Act.
