D Arbitrary laws are vague in nature.
Arbitrary laws are vague in nature. They have no strong reason to justify their existence. They are just passed to favour the government and not the people. These laws empower the government to arrest people if they go against it. The Rowlatt Act passed by the British in March, 1919 was one such arbitrary law.
