Question
Why did the Non-Cooperation Movement gradually slow down in the cities? Explain.
Solution
The Non-Cooperation Movement gradually slowed down in the cities due to the following reasons:
- The khadi cloth was more expensive than mass-produced mill cloth. Therefore, poor people could not afford to buy it.
- Boycotting British institutes posed a problem as there was no alternative Indian educational institutions.
- Students and teachers began trickling back to government schools.
- The long period of unemployment compelled lawyers to join back to work in government courts.
