INTRODUCTION
3.Rowlatt Act
In the first World War Turkey had aligned with the Axis powers
led by Germany that were defeated by the Allied powers led by
Great Britain. The politically conscious Muslims were critical of
the treatment out to the Turkish (Ottoman) Empire by Britain and
its Allies who had partitioned it and taken away Thrace from
Turkey proper.The Muslims also regarded the Sultan of Turkey as
the Caliph or the religious head of the Muslims and they strongly
felt that his position over the Muslim religious places should not
be undermined.
The causes mentioned above led to unrest among the masses who
were anxious for political action against the British government.
The economic hardship suffered by the ordinary Indians only
added fuel to the fire.
The other successful boycott observed was the boycott of the law
courts by lawyers such as C.R Das, Motilal Nehru, M.R Jaykar,
Saifuddin Kitchlew and others.
But many historians and Indian leaders of the time also defended
Gandhi's judgment. However, there have been claims that Gandhi
called off the movement in an attempt to salvage his own personal
image, which would have been tarnished had he been blamed for
the Chauri Chaura incident, although a similar type of movement
was introduced in 1930, the civil disobedience movement. The
main difference was the introduction of a policy of violating the
law.
