Answer:
The Madras Justice Party has opted not to participate in the council government elections.
Explanation:
Non-cooperation with the British was encouraged by Rajagopalachari's supporters.
Most provinces boycotted the council elections, with the exception of Madras, where the Justice Party, a non-Brahmin party, believed that entering the council was a chance to gain some influence, which was previously only available to Brahmans.
Non-Brahmin members of the Justice Party had previously been unable to win elections, as Brahman candidates had always prevailed. They saw it as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join the councils.
