Which option correctly describes the economic strategy of the Non-Cooperation Movement?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Boycott foreign goods and use swadeshi
The economic strategy combined boycott with swadeshi. Indians were encouraged to stop buying foreign cloth and other imported goods, thereby reducing support for colonial trade. At the same time, using and producing swadeshi goods promoted Indian handlooms, crafts, and industries. Therefore option A correctly states both parts. The other choices either strengthen foreign commerce, help British factories, or damage Indian production, so they oppose the movement’s economic purpose.
