Answer 2

Answer:

Shaukath and Mohammed Ali

Explanation:

These two brothers started a campaign that was joined by Mahatma Gandhi.

In India Non Cooperation Movement in 1920 sep4 was started by the INC to oppose the Anglo British for Rowlatt Act that was responsible for the Jalianwala Bagh massacre. Meanwhile Indian Muslims also opposed the Anglo British by starting a campaign called Khilafath movement.

Khilafath movement :-

Caliph of the Ottoman empire was believed as the caliph of Muslims all around the world. But The Ottoman empire lost its glory in the First world war and was brutally suppressed by the britishers. Hence there was no Caliph for the Muslims.

So the Indian Muslims started the campaign to support the remains of the empire. It was supported by the Indian leaders. Together it became a huge national movement that United Muslims and the Hindus of India.
