❤.The Chauri Chaura incident occurred 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 set back 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-co-operation movement.

In the early 1920, Indians, led by Mahatma Gandhi, were engaged in a nationwide non-co-operation movement. Using non-violent methods of civil disobedience known as Satyagraha protests were organised by the Indian National Congress to challenge oppressive government regulatory measures such as the Rowlatt Act,with the ultimate goal of swaraj or independence.
