Causes
Effect of the movement
Significance
Causes Lord Irwin
 In 1929, having a meeting with Ramsay Macdonald , the Prime Minister
of England, Lord Irwin returned to India and declared that the object of
the British Government was to grant India dominion status. But the
Prime Minister under pressure of the conservative leaders, failed to
keep his promise. When Gandhiji met Lord Irwin in December 1929, the
latter refused to make any commitment regarding dominion status.
 In utter despair Gandhiji said , ‘I have burnt my boat ’. The country
became prepared to fight for ‘Purna Swaraj’.
 The main cause of the Civil Disobedience movement was worldwide
economic depression during the period 1929-1930.
 The organizations of the works and the peasants gathered strength
under the leadership of the communists. All these events led Gandhiji
to feel the necessity of launching Civil Disobedience movement.
Salt-Satyagraha
 The Civil Disobedience movement started with Gandhiji’s historic
‘Dandi March’.
 Gandhiji walked 240 miles through villages of Gujarat.
 He reached Dandi on 6 April 1930.
 He inaugurated the Civil Disobedience movement by picking up
handful of salt.
 In Peshawar , Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan took an active role.
Effect of the movement J.N.Sengupta
 Civil Disobedience in different forms continued in different
provinces. Special stress was laid on boycott of foreign good .
 In eastern India, payment of chowkidari tax was refused.
 In Bengal , J.N. Sengupta defied Government laws by
regarding openly the books banned by the government.
 The movement had taken a fire hold in provinces of U.P,
Orissa, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Assam.
 The Gandhi-Irwin Pact and the Second Round Table
Conference having failed, the movement was resumed with
new zeal.
Significance
 According to the wish of Gandhiji, the congress withdrew the Civil
Disobedience in 1934. Though the movement failed but it had great
significance.
1. The movement marked an important state in the progress of the
freedom struggle.
2. The movement received global attention.
3. Imports from Britain had fallen considerably.
4. The participation of the Muslims was significant.
5. Even middle and upper class Muslim women were active.
Quit India Movement
 The Quit India Movement or the Indian August Movement, was a
movement launched at the Bombay session of the All-India Congress
Committee by Mahatma Gandhi on 8 August 1942, during World War 2,
demanding an end to British Rule of India.
 In terms of immediate objectives, Quit India failed because of heavy-
handed suppression, weak co-ordination and lack of a clear-cut
programme of action.
 In 1992 Reserve Bank of India issued a 1 Rupee commemorative coin to
mark the golden jubilee of the Quit India Movement.
World War II And Indian Involvement
 British Governor General of India, Lord Linlithgow, had
without consultation with the Congress brought India into
the war.
 Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose organized the Indian National
Army with the help of the Japanese announced war against
the British government in India.
 The Muslim League, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, supported the
war in return Pakistan, a separate Muslim state.
Cripp’s Mission Failure
 The Cripps mission was an attempt in late March in
1942 to secure Indian cooperation and support for war.
 Cripps offered immediately self government and
eventual independence in return.
 The Congress was divided upon its response to India’s
entry to WW2.
 But the mission fails.
Causes of Failure
 The revolt of 1942 lasted for three months only.
 It failed in attempt to paralyze the government machinery
in order to seize power. The three main causes for the
failure acc. to Dr Amba Prasad are:
 Tactical mistakes of organization and planning.
 Loyalty of the services.
 Superior physical strength of the government.
