If a student says that the aim of the Non-Cooperation Movement was to end education, why is that statement wrong?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because the aim was to boycott government education and promote national education
The governing concept is constructive non-cooperation, not opposition to learning itself. Students and teachers were encouraged to leave government-controlled schools and colleges because these institutions supported colonial authority. National schools and colleges were established to provide alternative education linked with national aims. Thus A is correct. B is too narrow, C falsely describes Gandhi’s view, and D is factually sweeping and incorrect.
