Gandhiji decided to launch nation wide satyagraha against Rowlatt Act in1919 because of the following reasons:

1) The success in satyagraha movements in regions like Champaran, Kheda had prepared the ground for satyagrah

2)The terms and conditions of Rowlatt act were very obnoxious, they were violative of civil rights of Indians.

3)Jallianwalabagh massacre was a tragedy and inhuman and barbarous

4)The Khilafat issue had brought in the opportunity of binding Hindus and Muslims

That's all 🙂

Satyagraha. ... The term satyagraha was coined and developed by Mahatma Gandhi (1869–1948). He deployed satyagraha in the Indian independence movement and also during his earlier struggles in South Africa for Indian rights.


**The Champaran Satyagraha of 1917 was the first Satyagraha movement inspired by Gandhi and a major revolt in the Indian IndependenceMovement. ... Champaran Satyagraha was the first popular satyagraha (standing up for truth) to be started, but the word Satyagraha was used for the first time in Anti Rowlatt Act agitation.


**Gandhiji decided to launch a nationwide Satyagraha against the proposed Rowlatt Act 1919 because 1 .this Act means that the British may put the Indian into the jail because for no reason without a court case .


2. after the first world war the evolution of Turkish Khalifa movement started.


3. and the Jallianwala Bagh incident in the Jallianwala Bagh the Sikhs that had came to celebrate Baisakhi were killed because they were not knowing that the General Dyer had passed a law which meant that no one had to be out of their house but when he knew that some are celebrating baishakhi then he got angry and give the order to shoot everyone who are in the Jallianwala Bagh this led Mahatma Gandhi to start a nationwide Satyagraha.
