How did the boycott of council elections challenge colonial rule?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: By weakening the legitimacy of colonial political institutions

The boycott of council elections was a method of non-cooperation with colonial institutions. Legislative councils appeared to offer representation, but real authority remained with the colonial government. When nationalists and citizens refused to contest or participate, they withheld cooperation and exposed the limited legitimacy of these bodies. Therefore, option A is correct. The other choices describe effects opposite to the movement’s purpose: the boycott did not strengthen British laws, increase foreign-cloth sales, or speed up tax collection.
