The Non-Cooperation Movement (1920-1922), led by Mahatma Gandhi, is often described as “negative enough to be peaceful but positive enough to be effective.” It was a non-violent protest against British rule that involved withdrawing cooperation with the British government, including resigning from government positions, boycotting British institutions, and refusing to pay taxes. This approach effectively mobilized Indian society and placed significant pressure on the British administration, while adhering to non-violence.
