•Many factors culminated over time leading to the
Non-cooperation movement. Some of the
significant causes were – Growing British
oppression of Indians as seen by the Rowlatt Act
and Jalianwala Bagh massacre, economic
inequality due to Indian wealth being exported to
Britain, downturn of Indian artisans due to British
factory-made goods replacing handmade goods,
and strong resentment about Indian soldiers in
the British army dying in World War I while
fighting battles that otherwise had nothing to do
with India.

•Under Mahatma Gandhi’s leadership, the
movement aimed at resisting British rule
through non-violence (ahinsa).

National Congress headed the movement.”

6. Why Was It Called Off?

authorities. On 4th February 1922, in the

between local police and protestors. Gandhi
went on for a 3 days fast to appeal to the
Indians to stop all resistance and the
movement was called off.
