What was one reason for the slowing down of the Non-Cooperation Movement in urban areas?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Khadi was costly and not always easy for the poor to afford
Urban boycott faced a practical limitation because khadi was often more expensive than mass-produced foreign cloth and was not easily affordable for poorer consumers. As a result, replacing foreign cloth completely became difficult and the pace of the boycott slowed in some towns. Option A is correct. Foreign cloth had not disappeared, government schools were not all nationalised, and lawyers did not receive permanent exemption from courts.
