how did different social groups participate in cdm explain with example?
Answers
Not all communities participate in the Civil Disobedience Movement or cdm. There are 2 rich communities that participated in the Civil Disobedience Movement (C.D.M)
#) In Rural areas,
The Indian land owners wanted the Indian National Congress (INC) to put forward their demand of reducing the Land Revenue while the tenants wanted even the land owners to reduce the rent on the houses as the INC could take both it had first selected the land owners as they promised them that they would participate in large numbers.
#) In Urban Areas,
The Industrialists wanted the Britishers to remove the trade restrictions as they did for the World War 1. For the INC they were supporting with funds so that they could organize meeting hence the INC without any choice but to take their demand. While the Industrial Workers wanted the the company to them more wages as the INC had already taken up the demand of the Industrialists it could not take the forward the demand of the workers.
Hence in the C.D.M many different social groups did not participate.
During the Salt March many women from the richer communities had also joined because they just wanted to hear what was said by Gandhiji.
Answer:
Limitations of Civil Disobedience Movement:-
Limited participation of Dalits: Dalits participation in the civil Disobedience movement was very limited, particularly in Maharashtra and Nagpur region where their organization was quite strong.
No Participation of Muslims: Some of the Muslim political organizations in India were also Lukewarm in their response to the Civil Disobedience Movement. After Non-Cooperation-Khilafat movement Muslims felt alienated from the congress.
Dominant role of Sanatanis and Hindu Mahasabha: The role of Sanatanis and Hindu Mahasabha was very dominant. Due to the fear of Sanatanis the conservative high class Hindus, congress ignored the Dalits. Congress was very close to Hindu Mahasbha. Hindus Mahasabha strongly opposed the efforts of compromise between Congress and Muslim League.
Clash between BR Ambedkar and Mahatma Gandhi: In 1930 Dr B R Ambedkar clashed with Mahatma Gandhi at the second-round table conference by demanding separate electorate for Dalits.
Participants have different aspirations: Participation had their own aspirations. There was a contrast between the demands of industrialist and working class. Contrast was also there in the demand of Rich peasants and poor peasants. United struggle was not there.
