Introduction • During 1919-22, the British were opposed through two mass movements: (i) The Khilafat (ii) Non-Cooperation Though the two movements emerged from separate issues, they adopted a common programme of action—that of non-violent noncooperation. • The Khilafat issue was not directly linked to Indian politics but it provided the immediate background to the movement and gave an added advantage of cementing Hindu-Muslim unity against the British. Background Background of the two movements was provided by a series of events after the First World War. The year 1919, in particular, saw a strong feeling of discontent among all sections of Indians for various reasons: • The economic situation of the country in the post- War years had become alarming with a rise in prices of commodities, a decrease in the production of Indian industries, an increase in the burden of taxes and rents etc. • Rowlatt Act, the imposition of martial law in Punjab and the Jallianwalla Bagh massacre exposed the brutal and uncivilised face of the foreign rule.
