Answer ▶▶

Different social groups joined the Civil Disobedience Movement. Three of them are listed below.

➡ Rich peasant communities like Patidars of Gujarat and Jats of Uttar Pradesh - joined the movement because, being producers of commercial crops, they were hard-hit by depression and falling prices. For them, Swaraj meant struggle against high revenues.

➡ Poor peasants joined the struggle because they found it difficult to pay the rent. They wanted the unpaid rent to be remitted.

➡Rich business classes were against colonial policies which restricted trade. They joined the movement because they wanted protection against import of foreign goods. They thought that Swaraj would cancel colonial restrictions and trade would flourish without constraints.
