The Chauri Chaura incident happened on February 4th, 1922 in the village of Chauri Chaura in Gorakhpur district of Uttar Pradesh and immediately the Non-Cooperation Movement was called off by Mahatma Gandhi. The Satyagraha movement of non-violence and non-cooperation was in the second year when in 1922 the incident occurred in Chauri Chaura and then Mahatma did not hesitate to call off the movement that had matured over the past two years as the act was not ‘non-violence’. The principles were breached and that he considered his own responsibility and not only called off the movement but went to jail for two years. Gandhiji read out a statement in the court that said ‘I wanted to avoid violence.
Non-violence is the first article in my faith, it is also the last article of my creed. But I had to make my choice. I had either to submit to a system which I considered had done an irreparable harm to my country or incur the risk of the mad fury of my people bursting forth when they understood the truth from my lip. I know that my people have sometime gone mad. I am deeply sorry for it and I am therefore, here to submit not to a light penalty but to the highest penalty. I do not ask for mercy. I do not plead my extenuating act.’
