Answer:
In the year 1919, the British Government passed a new rule called the Rowlatt Act. The Rowlatt Commission was appointed to investigate the 'seditious conspiracy' of the Indian people. The Law passed empowered the Viceroy Government with extraordinary power to stop all violations by silencing the press, confining political activists without trial and arresting any individual suspected of sedition and treachery and arresting individuals without any warrant. A nationwide protest was raised by calling a Hartal.
The Act was ill-famed as 'Black Act' by the people and Indians revolt in protest against the Rowlatt Act.
