What to Focus On

  • Gandhi introduced passive resistance and Satyagraha from South Africa.
  • Satyagraha was based on truth, suffering, and non-violence.
  • The Satyagraha Sabha was formed in Bombay on 24 February 1919.

  • The Rowlatt Committee worked under Justice Sydney Rowlatt in 1917.
  • The Rowlatt Act allowed detention without trial for up to two years.
  • The hartal date changed from 30 March to 6 April 1919.

  • Dr. Kichlew and Dr. Satyapal were arrested on 10 April 1919.
  • The Jallianwala Bagh massacre took place on 13 April 1919.
  • General Dyer ordered firing without warning on an unarmed crowd.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The Rowlatt Act was a normal reform law that gave Indians more freedom after the war.

The Rowlatt agitation started only after the Jallianwala Bagh massacre.

The Jallianwala Bagh crowd was armed and fought back against the British troops.
