Chapter- 8 SOME IMPORTANT MOMENTS
RELATED TO CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE AND NON CO-OPERATION
MOVEMENTS
Non-cooperation movement
• This movement was a peaceful method of creating change. Mahatma Gandhi had shown in South Africa and in 1918 in Champaran, Bihar and Kheda, Gujarat that the only way to earn the respect and attention of British officials was to actively resist government activities through civil disobedience.
Satyagraha
Satyagraha• Gandhi's call was for a nationwide protest against the Rowlatt Acts. All
offices and factories would be closed. Indians would be encouraged to withdraw from Raj-sponsored schools, police services, the military and the civil services, and lawyers were asked to leave the Raj's courts. Public transportation and English-manufactured goods, especially clothing, would be boycotted
Success and suspension
• The success of the revolt was a total shock to British authorities and a massive encouragement to millions of Indians. Then on February 4, 1922, in the Chauri Chaura, after violent clashes between the local police and the protestors in which three protestors were killed by police firing,
the police chowki (pron.-chau key) (station) was set on fire by the mob, killing 22 of the police occupants.
Aftermath• The Non-Co-operation Movement was withdrawn because of the Chauri-Chaura
incident. Although he had stopped the national revolt single-handedly, on March 10, 1922, Gandhi was arrested. On March 18, 1922, he was imprisoned for two years for publishing seditious materials.
• Although most Congress leaders remained firmly behind Gandhi, the disillusioned broke away. The Ali brothers would soon become fierce critics. Motilal Nehru and Chittaranjan Das formed the Swaraj Party, rejecting Gandhi's leadership. Many nationalists had felt that the Non-Cooperation Movement should not have been stopped due to isolated incidents of violence, and most nationalists, while retaining confidence in Gandhi, were discouraged.
Civil Disobedience Movement
• Civil Disobedience Movement launched in 1930 under MK Gandhi's leadership was one of the most important phases of India's freedom struggle.
• Muslims reserved their opinion on the Simon Report declaring that the report was not final and the matters should decided after consultations with the leaders representing all communities in India.
• The Satyagraha was a campaign of nonviolent protest against the British salt tax in colonial India which began with the Salt March to Dandi on March 12, 1930. It was the first act of organized opposition to British rule after Purna Swaraj the declaration of independence by the Indian National Congress. Mahatma Gandhi led the Dandi march from his Sabarmati Ashram to Dandi
• Gandhi was arrested on May 5, 1930, just days before his planned raid on the Dharasana Salt Works.
• The satyagraha against the salt tax continued for almost a year, ending with Gandhi's release from jail and negotiations with Viceroy Lord Irwin at the Second Round Table Conference
• The Salt Satyagraha campaign was based upon Gandhi's principles of nonviolent protest called satyagraha, which he loosely translated as "truth-force.
• The satyagraha teachings of Gandhi and the March to Dandi had a significant influence on American civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr., and his fight for civil rights for blacks and other minority groups in the 1960s.
• There were outbreaks of violence in Calcutta , Karachi, and Gujarat. Unlike his suspension of satyagraha after violence broke out during the Non-cooperation movement, this time Gandhi was "unmoved".
• Salt Satyagraha produced scant progress toward dominion status or independence for India, and did not win any major concessions from the British. It also failed to attract Muslim support—many Muslims actively boycotted the satyagraha.
• The Satyagraha campaign of the 1930s also forced the British to recognize that their control of India depended entirely on the consent of the Indians — Salt Satyagraha was a significant step in the British losing that consent.

Causes of the Growth Communalism in India
• What is Communalism?
NEHRU AND COMMUNALISM
Communalism does not end the other, each feeds on the other and both fatten.Jawahar Lal Nehru
Definition
• Communalism is a modern term that describes a broad range social movements and social theories which are in some way centered upon the community.
Communalism in Indian Context…
• In the Indian subcontinent, the term "communalism" has taken on a very different meaning, namely that of a religion and, more specifically, ethnicity-based sectarianism promoting communal violence, espoused by many political and socio-religious movements.
Growth of Communalism during the revolt of 1857
During the revolt of 1857, which is described as the first attempt at resisting the British, Hindus and Muslims fought side by Side, united in their purpose of defeating a common enemy.
The main causes of growth of communalism
• End of Muslim soverignity• Wahabi movement• Deplorable economic condition of the
Muslims
The British noticed this unity and realized that their survival rested on being able to keep the people divided, for they had managed to establish their rule because politically India had been a divided country at the time of their entry. The British thus followed their famous 'Divide and Rule' policy..
Policy of DIVIDE AND RULE
ROLE OF SIR SAYID AHAMMED KHAN
• Till about 1870 the British oppressed the Muslims greatly for they held them responsible for the revolt.
• Sir Sayyed Ahmed Khan, an earlier nationalist
drifted towards Communalism.
• Communalism was also fostered through the writing of the Indian History. e.g. the division of Indian History into Hindu period and Muslim period as ancient and medieval India.
Misinterpretation of History
Socio-religious movements
• Socio-religious reform movements like Arya Samaj, Brahmo-Samaj, Sanatan Dharam movements, Aligarh movement, Wahabi movement and some other fringe movements contributed towards communalism.
Role of communal heroes• Propagation of
Communal Heroes to glorify the past communal traditions and struggles e.g. Prithvi Raj Chauhan, Maharana Pratap, Shivaji, Guru Gobind Singh among Hindus and Mahmud Ghaznavi, Mohammed Ghori, Akbar, Aurangazeb etc among the Muslims.
Other causes
• Contribution of MR. Buck• Muslim associations• Separate educational institutions of various
communities• Partition of Bengal• Establishment of I.N.C.
• The foundation of Muslim League on 30 Dec. 1906, institutionalized the Muslim communalism.
• Iqbal at Allahabad session of Muslim League in 1930 gave two nation concept.
FOUNDATION OF MUSLIM LEAGUE
• The term Pakistan was coined by a young under graduate student Rehmat Ali of Cambridge University in 1933.
• Hindu nationalists like Savarkar, M.M. Malviya and S.P. Mukherjee along with the Sikh leaders Master Tara Singh took opposite position vis a vis, Muslims.

Different PHASES of Independence
The Communal Award of 1932 announced by the British Government further widened the gulf between the Hindus and the Muslims. By this time Jinnah emerged as the most prominent face of the Muslim League.
• By the 1940's the move towards partition had gathered tremendous momentum and although secular nationalists tried right till the end to keep the country united, but sadly the country could not stay united, and its people were divided into two separate nations.
• The August Offer (1940), The Cripps Mission (1942), The Wavell Plan (1945) and the Cabinet Mission (1946) were the British steps towards the partition and Independence of India.
• In both the Punjab and Bengal, the Boundary Commission consisted of two Muslim and two non-Muslim judges with Sir Cyril Radcliffe as a common chairman. The boundary line between India and Pakistan was thus named as Radcliff line
Radcliff line
• The shrewdness of Jinnah and his adroit handling of the political situation combining with the inept handling by the Congress and uncompromising doctrine of the Hindu ascendancy propagated by Savarkar, along with calculated passiveness of the British resulted in a worst tragedy that could ever befall on a nation and its people.
Final stage• The Direct Action (16 august 1946) of the Muslim League and the
ensuing communal riots were the climax of communal apathy.• Attlee’s declaration (20 February 1947) and the Mountbatten Plan
(3 June 1947) were the last moves towards freedom and division.
Making of the constitution
• Mahatma Gandhi raised the demand voice regarding the new constitution of India
• INC demanded the election of the Constituent Assembly in 1934.
• Muslim League demanded the formation of separate Constituent Assembly.
Role of the British

• Mr. Attlee called a conference at London on 26 November 1946 which continued 3 December. Representative of INC was Nehru, Sikhs was Sardar Baldev Singh and Muslim League was Jinnah and Liakat Ali.
• Muslim League did not take part in the Constituent Assembly and demanded separate nation.
• The efforts of Nehru and Gandhiji became failure
First meeting• On December 9 1946 the first meeting of the
Constituent Assembly was held.• Jinnah demanded to postpone the meeting and if not
postponed he warned that riots would take place• 209 participated in the meeting• It did not postpone• In this meeting Dr. Rajendra Prasad was elected as
the permanent president of Constituent Assembly Constituent Assembly.
Drawbacks of the Assembly• Limited sphere• It was formed according to the will of the British Govt.• British Govt. could abolish the Assembly whenever it liked• Assembly had no rights to constitute separate constitutions
for the provinces• It had no right to treat other subjects unlike the deptt. of
defence, communications and foreign affairs• Approval British Parliament was very compulsory• It had no judicial authenticity
