Q. Discuss the reasons why the Non- Cooperation Movement was withdrawn and considered unsuccessful. 120 words
Ans. The Non-Cooperation movement was withdrawn due to the Chauri Chaura incident, wherein a group of protestants clashed with the police, and the policemen open fire on the protestants. The shooting incident caused the entire police station to burn down, making 23 policemen die. This incident made many protestants change their mind about the Non-Cooperation movement. Gandhi then turned down the Non-Cooperation movement. During the ‘Non-cooperation Movement,’ a group of protestors marched into the Chauri Chaura market on February 2, 1922, to protest against high and unusual meat prices. But their protest was interrupted by local police officers, and they arrested the leaders. They also used force on the protestors thereby injuring many in the process. This instigated the protestors, and they returned on February 5.
