The Rowlatt Satyagraha of 1919 was launched by Gandhi to protest against:
Laws allowing detention and punishment without trial
The Rowlatt Satyagraha of 1919 was launched by Gandhi to protest against laws allowing detention and punishment without trial (the Rowlatt Act).
New salt tax, partition of Bengal, and ban on vernacular press describe other historical grievances from different periods, not the Rowlatt Act protest.
Hence, 'Laws allowing detention and punishment without trial' is the correct answer.
