Why was the question of civil liberty important in the context of the Rowlatt Act?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because the law allowed detention without trial.

Civil liberty includes protection from arbitrary arrest and the right to a fair legal process. The Rowlatt Act of 1919 allowed the colonial government to arrest and detain people without a normal trial, even when evidence and judicial safeguards were limited. This threatened personal freedom and the rule of law, producing strong opposition and protests. It did not grant universal voting rights, free the press, or reduce taxes, so option A is correct.
