Question

Did Gandhiji take the correct step by withdrawing the Non-Cooperation Movenment?

Answer 1

YES Gandhiji did took the correct step by withdrawing the Non-cooperation Movement .

The Non-cooperation movement only resulted in violence.

When we were non-cooperating with the British the British took equally brutal steps and repressive measures.

This led to the Chaui Chaura incident where the Indians burned the police station.

Hence non-cooperation was not a peaceful event.

Gandhiji hence withdrawed it because if he had not done , then there would have been more deaths.

Later when British did not listen to his demands , he again continued it .

Moreover the Non-cooperation could not continue as Gandhiji was jailed .

Gandhiji had to withdraw it and also participate in the Round Table Conference .

I think violence was better than non-violence.

Answer 2

➡ Yes , Gandhiji took a correct step withdrawing non - cooperation movement because if he hadn't stop the movement the incident may had turned into violence .

➡ Because of this again there may be a lose to the lives of people .

➡ And the unity among the people maybe reduced .

➡ By this we can say Gandhiji took a correct step withdrawing non - cooperation movement .


Non - Cooperation Movement :-

➡ Non - cooperation movement was led by Mahatma Gandhi .

➡ It was started on 30 August 1920 and ended in the year 1922 in the month of February .

➡ The main aim is to resist the British rule through non violence [ ahimsa ] .

➡After the Chauri- Chaura incident the people turned to violence.

➡ So Gandhiji felt that the people of India were not ready for a nation wide movement of mass struggle with ahimsa and felt that he should withdraw the movement.

➡ Gandhiji felt that felt the movement was turning violent .

➡ On 10 March 1922, Gandhi was arrested .
