Why did the Non-Cooperation Movement fail?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the history of struggle for India\u2019s independence, there is one movement that stands out as a beacon of non-cooperation resistance, & this resistance was spearheaded by Mahatma Gandhi!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In March 1920, Gandhi through the manifesto urged people to embrace the Swadeshi principle<\/strong>, spin their cloth & work towards eradicating social evils like eliminating untouchability<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The movement was not just about passive resistance, rather it was a multifaceted protest against British rule!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indians were asked to relinquish their titles, boycott foreign goods & withdraw from government institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea of Swaraj, which started from the Swadeshi movement – Gandhi took it from the cities to rural India!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The movement was a result of betrayal by the GoI Act 1919<\/a> & against repressive measures like the Rowlatt Act, Khilafat Wrong, & Punjab Wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what was the reason that this mass movement failed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The biggest reason we talk about this is the Chauri Chaura incident. The incident turned violent, & because of this Gandhi suspended the movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we have multiple reasons why NCM was bound to fail –<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Non-realization of the Cause<\/strong> – People had not learned or fully understood the method of movement, i.e. non-violence. The movement led to a kind of excitement among people, which would have eventually turned violent. This violent movement could be easily suppressed by the Britishers.<\/li>
  2. Not Sustainable<\/strong> – A movement like this couldn\u2019t be sustained at such a high pitch for a very long time!<\/li>
  3. Hindu-Muslim Unity<\/strong> was based on Khilafat wrong. However, the relevance of the Caliphate and its demand was lost when Turkey was declared a secular state.<\/li>
  4. While we talk about the Hindu-Muslim unity of the movement, it was communalized<\/strong> by clashes like the Moplah rebellion, which also affected national politics.<\/li>
  5. While Swaraj was the ultimate aim, what was it exactly?<\/strong> There were vague definitions for everyone, but it was taken differently by different sections of society.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The aim of a guide is, to help with thinking capabilities. UPSC demands this from an aspirant – to be thinking beings, who focus on analysis rather than facts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    At Edukemy, we focus exactly on this. We want YOU to be able to analyze stuff – not just delve into rot learning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
