Which approach is most useful for answering difficult questions on this subtopic?

Correct answer: Linking economic crisis, repression, religious issue and political strategy together

A strong approach to this subtopic is to build a connected causal chain rather than memorise isolated facts. Wartime economic hardship created discontent; the Rowlatt Act and Jallianwala Bagh exposed repression; the Khilafat issue opened possibilities for wider unity; and Non-Cooperation became a political response. Option A is correct because it links these dimensions. The other approaches omit relationships essential for accurate explanation.
