Question

why was the participation of the muslims and the untouchable passive during the Civil Disobidience Movement??

Answer 1

Explanation:

Ans. 1. Some of the Muslim political organizations in India were also lukewarm in their response to the Civil Disobedience Movement.

2. After the decline of the Non- Cooperation–Khilafat movement, a large section of Muslims felt alienated from the congress.

3. From the mid-1920s the congress came to be more visibly associated with openly Hindu religious nationalist group like the Hindu Mahasabha.

4. As relation between Hindus and Muslims worsened, each community organized religious processions with militant fervor, provoking Hindu-Muslim communal clashes and riots in various cities.

5. Every riot deepened the distance between the two communities.
