    Solution

    Statement 1: The Rowlatt Act was based on the recommendations of the ‘Sedition Committee’ — TRUE The Rowlatt Act of 1919 was based on the recommendations of the Sedition Committee (1918) chaired by Justice Sidney Rowlatt. Hence, Statement 1 is correct. Statement 2: In Rowlatt Satyagraha Gandhiji tried to use the Home Rule League — TRUE Gandhiji attempted to mobilize support using existing political organizations such as the Home Rule Leagues, though with limited success. Thus, Statement 2 is correct. Statement 3: Demonstrations against the Simon Commission coincided with the Rowlatt Satyagraha — FALSE • Rowlatt Satyagraha → 1919 • Simon Commission protests → 1928 These events were almost a decade apart, so they did not coincide. Therefore, only statements 1 and 2 are correct.
