Answer:

Answer. Non-Cooperation Movement spread in the countryside: (i) In Awadh, peasants were led by Baba Ramchandra. ... (iii) The peasant movement demanded reduction of revenue, abolition of begar and social boycott of oppressive landlords.

Explanation:

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi started the non-cooperation movement. The main motive of this movement was to resist the British rule in India, by a non-violent means, also called "satyagraha". This movement gained widespread popularity and was spread across the countryside.

There was the surrendering of titles

Boycott of schools and colleges led by the British

Foreign goods were burnt, and the liquor shops were destroyed.

People boycotted foreign clothes and initiated the use of khadi

The peasants, the local leader and the tribals started this movement in the countryside. For example, the peasants were led by Baba Ramchandra, in Awadh. Here, the movement was not against the Britishers, but against the talukdars and landlords. They made the peasants work for days together in their fields, without paying them and were regularly evicted from their homes. This led to an outrage among the peasants, and they demanded a reduction in the revenue.

Jawaharlal Nehru set up the Awadh Kisan Sabha in the villages.

As a result of this, the houses of talukdars were attacked, and the bazaars were looted.

In the Gundam hills of Andra Pradesh, a militant guerrilla movement spread under the leadership of Raju. This movement was established to fight against unfair forest laws.

This was a mass movement followed in the urban cities and towns, by the people who used to look up to Gandhi and his methods of agitation.

Answer:

In Awadh, Baba Ramchandra led peasants against talukdars and landlords who demanded high rents and unnecessary cesses.

The peasant movement demanded reduction of revenue, abolition of Begar and social boycott of oppressive landlords. Awadh Kisan Sabha was set up under Nehru. Nai-dhobi Bandhs were organised.

However, soon the movement lost its direction. Houses of talukdars and merchants were attacked: bazaar looted and grain hoards were taken over. Tribal peasants misinterpreted Gandhi’s idea of Swaraj and grew violent.
