Practicing Success
"No provocation," he insisted, can possibly justify (the) brutal murder of men who had been rendered defenceless and who had virtually thrown themselves on the mercy of the mob." These were the words of Gandhiji. He is referring to which of the following events? |
Jalianwala Bagh Massacre Chauri Chaura Incidence Killing of British officers by Indian Revolutionaries Merciless beating of Lala Lajpat Rai and Others during the protest against Simon Commission. |
Chauri Chaura Incidence |
In February 1922, a group of peasants attacked and torched a police station in the hamlet of Chauri Chaura, in the United Provinces (now, Uttar Pradesh and Uttaranchal). Several constables perished in the conflagration. This act of violence prompted Gandhiji to call off the movement altogether. |
