why there was an atmosphere of suspicion and depressed between hindus and muslims during civil disobedience movement
Answers
Answer:
Limitations of Civil Disobedience Movement :i Dalit participation was limited. They began organizing themselves demanding reserved seats in educational institutions and a separate electorate. Dr B.R. Ambedkar who organized the Dalits into the Depressed Classes Association in 1930 clashed with Mahatma Gandhi at the Second Round Table Conference by demanding separate electorates for Dalits. Ambedkar ultimately accepted Gandhijis proposal and the result was the Poona Pact of September 1932.ii Muslim political groups were also lukewarm in their response to the Civil Disobedience Movement. After the decline of the Non-Cooperation-Khilafat Movement large section of Muslims felt alienated from the Congress. When the Civil Disobedience Movement started there was sudden atmosphere of suspicion and distrust between communities. Alienated from the Congress Large sections of Muslims could not respond to the call for a united struggle. Many Muslim leaders and intellectuals expressed their concern about the status of Muslim as a minority within India. They feared that the culture and identity of minorities would be submerged under the domination of Hindu majority.
