consequences:
The economic effects of the non-cooperation movement were very significant. Foreign goods were boycotted, liquor shops were picketed and bonfires were lit of foreign cloth.
• The domestic textile mills and handlooms industry got a shot in the arm since people had begun to prefer Indian clothes over imported ones.
• Merchants and traders abstained from trading in foreign goods or finance foreign trade.
• Between 1921 and 1922, the import of foreign cloth dropped by half and its value also diminished.
Even though the Non-Cooperation movement did not achieve its stated aims but the strategic and leadership role of Mahatma Gandhi gave India’s freedom struggle new dimensions. The biggest gain of the movement was that it gave a new confidence to the common people and taught them to be fearless in their political pursuit. Mahatma Gandhi made the idea and need for Swarajya a more popular notion, which, in turn; created a new wave of patriotic enthusiasm. Satyagraha or protesting through passive resistance became the primary tool of the Indian freedom movement. Promotion of Charkha and Khadi as the symbol of Indian nationalism helped Indian handloom products gain recognition. Native weavers found renewed employment. The most significant contribution of Non-cooperation movement and Gandhi to Indian National movement was the unanimous unification of the entire nation behind a single cause.
