Correct Answer - Option 1 : Only A
The Correct answer is Only A.
Comparison between the Civil Disobedience Movement and Non-Cooperation Movement:
  • There were certain aspects in which the Civil Disobedience Movement differed from the Non-Cooperation Movement. These comparisons are as follows:
  • The stated objective of the Civil Disobedience Movement was complete independence and not vaguely-worded Swaraj.
  • Civil Disobedience Movement had an objective of Purna Swaraj. The Purna Swaraj Demand was made in the Lahore session of congress by J.L.Nehru in 1929. while Non- Cooperation Movement had the objective of Swaraj.​ Hence statement A is Correct.
    • Swaraj-Swaraj lays stress on governance, not by a hierarchical government, but by self-governance through individuals and community building.
    • Poorna swaraj-means Declaration of the Independence of India was promulgated by the Indian National Congress on 26 January 1930.
  • The methods involved a violation of the law from the very beginning and not just non-cooperation with foreign rule.
  • There was a decline in forms of protests involving the intelligentsia, such as lawyers giving up the practice, students giving up government schools to join national schools and colleges.
  • Muslim participation was nowhere near that in the Non-Cooperation Movement level. Hence statement B is Incorrect.
  • No major labour upsurge coincided with the movement.
  • The massive participation of peasants and business groups compensated for the decline of other features.
  • The number of those imprisoned was about three times more this time.
  • Congress was organizationally stronger.
