What was the economic purpose of boycotting foreign cloth in the Non-Cooperation Movement?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To reduce demand for foreign goods and promote swadeshi

The governing concept is economic nationalism through boycott and swadeshi. Foreign cloth represented the strength of British manufactured imports, while Indian handloom workers and local producers faced hardship. Refusing foreign cloth reduced demand for imported goods and encouraged people to buy or produce Indian cloth, strengthening self-reliance. Thus option A is correct; the other choices would either support colonial industry or harm the intended economic purpose.
