The Chauri Chaura incident took place at Chauri Chaura in the Gorakhpur district of the United Province, (modern Uttar Pradesh) in British India on 5 February 1922, when a large group of protesters, participating in the Non-cooperation movement, clashed with police, who opened fire. In retaliation the demonstrators attacked and set fire to a police station, killing all of its occupants. The incident led to the deaths of three civilians and 22 policemen. Mahatma Gandhi, who was strictly against violence, halted the non co-operation movement on the national level on 12 February 1922, as a direct result of this incident.[1] In his autobiography, Jawaharlal Nehru describes this decision as a setback and extremely demoralising for workers of Congress who were in jail when Gandhi took this decision.[2] Bhagat Singh protested at the taking back of the non-cooperation movement.
