How can one best understand a major limitation of the Non-Cooperation Movement?

Correct answer: It was difficult to combine different group expectations into one disciplined programme

The governing concept is the tension between broad mobilisation and organisational unity. Different groups joined Non-Cooperation but did not all seek the same immediate result: peasants, workers, traders and local communities connected national protest with distinct economic or social grievances. Leaders therefore faced difficulty keeping everyone within one disciplined, non-violent programme. Option A is correct; the other options wrongly deny participation or the movement's anti-colonial purpose.
