at the Calcutta session of 1920, the indian national Congress decided that Swaraj would be its goal.gandhiji gave the call for non-cooperation with the government (British).it was to be a non-cooperation movement.the programme of the movement included surrender of titles and resignation from government positions, non -payment of taxes , refusal to attend courts by lawyers, boycott of foreign goods, schools colleges and government institutions and re refusal to join the military and take government jobs.

the movement spread across the length and breadth of the country.thousands of people including women , peasants, workers , the middle class etc, participated.gandhiji and Ali brothers toured the country giving stirring speeches.shops selling foreign goods were picketed.khadi was spun to signify self-reliance and boycott of foreign cloth.When the Prince of Wales visited India in 1921, he was greeted by empty streets and downed shutters.

The chaura-chauri incident:
while the non-cooperation movement was still going strong, an incident took place at chauri -chaura in Uttar Pradesh.a procession of peasants was fired upon by the police. this led an angry mob to clash with the police at the police station.in the resulting mob violence , 22 policemen were killed and the police station wagon burnt down

When Gandhi ji heard of this incident, he decided to call off the movement.
hope it helps!!!
