Consider the following subjects with regard to Non-Cooperation Programme:
I. Boycott of law-courts and foreign cloth
II. Observance of strict non-violence
III. Retention of titles and honours without using them in public
IV. Establishment of Panchayats for settling disputes
How many of the above were parts of Non-Cooperation Programme?
Explanation
Answer: (c) Only three
Explanation:
The Non-Cooperation Movement (1920-22), led by Gandhi, included:
• I: Boycott of law courts and foreign cloth was a key part to promote swadeshi and self-reliance, so this is correct.
• II: Strict non-violence was a core principle of the movement, so this is correct.
• III: Retention of titles without using them was not a formal part of the programme; individuals were encouraged to surrender titles altogether. This is incorrect.
• IV: Establishment of Panchayats for dispute resolution was part of promoting self-governance, so this is correct.
Thus, I, II, and IV are correct, making only three parts correct, so (c) is the answer.
