Q.  During which Viceroy's term in India was the Rowlatt Committee formed to investigate revolutionary activities?

A) Lord Curzon (1899-1905)

B) Lord Hardinge (1910-1916)

C) Lord Chelmsford (1916-1921) 

D) Lord Irwin (1926-1931)

Answer: C) Lord Chelmsford (1916-1921)

Key Points About Rowlatt Committee :

During the viceroyalty of Lord Chelmsford (1916-1921), a sedition committee, officially known as the Committee to Investigate Revolutionary Conspiracies in India, was appointed by the British Indian government in December 1917. The committee, also known as the Rowlatt Committee after its president, Justice Sidney Rowlatt, was commissioned to:

• Investigate the nature and extent of revolutionary activities in India.
• Examine challenges in dealing with these activities.
• Recommend legislation to strengthen the government's response.

The Rowlatt Committee report and its proposed legislation, the Rowlatt Act, sparked widespread protests and demonstrations across India, culminating in the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in Amritsar. This event ultimately led to the repeal of the Rowlatt Act and became a turning point in the Indian independence movement.

Which of the following events triggered the Swadeshi movement in 1905?

Q.1. Which of the following events triggered the Swadeshi movement in 1905?

(a) The Sepoy Mutiny of 1857

(b) The Bengal Partition

(c) The rise of the Indian National Congress

(d) The Industrial Revolution in Britain

Answer: b) The Bengal Partition 

The Partition of Bengal by Lord Curzon in July 1905.

• The Sepoy Mutiny of 1857: While a significant moment in Indian history, it was decades before the Swadeshi movement and had different motivations.
• The Bengal Partition: This is the correct answer. The division of Bengal by Curzon, seen as a strategy to weaken Bengali influence and nationalist sentiment, sparked massive outrage and led to the Swadeshi movement as a form of protest and economic self-reliance.
• The rise of the Indian National Congress: Though the Congress played a role in mobilizing the Swadeshi movement, it wasn't the trigger. The partition itself ignited the public anger that fueled the movement.
• The Industrial Revolution in Britain: While this had long-term impacts on India's economy, it wasn't directly tied to the immediate trigger of the Swadeshi movement in 1905.

Summary : Therefore, considering the key point of immediate cause, the Partition of Bengal stands out as the event that triggered the Swadeshi movement in 1905.
