Q17. Explain the reasons for relaunching the Civil disobedience Movement by Gandhiji.
Civil disobedience Movement was relaunched by Gandhiji because:
- Failure of talks at 2nd Round Table conference and Gandhiji was disappointed.
- Country was going through unrest. There were strikes by railway workers in 1930 and dock workers in 1932.
- Peasants were facing high taxation and poverty.
- The government had begun a new cycle of repression. Ghaffar Khan and Jawaharlal Nehru were both in jail, the Congress had been declared illegal, and a series of measures had been imposed to preventmeetings, demonstrations and boycotts.
