What was the biggest political advantage of linking Khilafat with Non-Cooperation?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Bringing different communities into a common anti-colonial protest
The Khilafat issue especially addressed Muslim concerns about the fate of the Ottoman Caliph, while Non-Cooperation expressed the wider demand for swaraj and opposition to colonial rule. Gandhi’s decision to connect them created a common political platform. This helped bring many Muslims and other anti-colonial groups into one mass movement. Options B, C and D are opposite to this inclusive strategy.
