Why gandhi ji called off civil disobedience movement |
| Answer» - After a failed round table conference, Gandhiji launched the civil disobedience movement.- In retaliation by the British government, Indian leaders were arrested, angry crowds demonstrated in the streets of Peshawar, facing armoured cars and police firing.- Hundreds of people were killed.- A month later, Gandhiji himself was arrested, industrial workers attacked police\xa0posts, government buildings, law courts and railway stations and various structures that were directly working for the British rule.- Even the peaceful satyagrahis were attacked, women and children were beaten, and about 100,000 people were arrested.- To break the deadline between Congress and the government Lord Irwin invited Gandhiji for a peace pact that was called Gandhi—Irwin pact.- As a consequence to the above reasons, Gandhiji decided to call off the movement. | |
