    Civil disobedience movement in India had several key impacts: 1) It spread Gandhi's message of nonviolent protest and drew widespread participation, especially from women, students, and religious groups. 2) The movement put pressure on the British government to negotiate with Gandhi and Congress for the first time as equals and make some concessions like releasing political prisoners. 3) It helped popularize the cause of independence and laid the groundwork for further noncooperation with British rule, though the goals of the movement were not fully achieved at the time.

    introducion
    • On 12 March 1930 Gandhi left the Sabarmati Ashram at
    Ahmadabad on foot with 78 other members of the
    Ashram for Dandi. After reaching Dandi, Gandhi broke the
    salt law. It was considered illegal to make salt as it was
    solely a government monopoly. This was the start of the
    CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE MOVEMENT.
    • The civil disobedience movement is credited for the
    setting of stage for freedom in India in many ways. It was
    important because it was a movement that spread to
    urban areas and saw the participation of women and folks
    from lower castes.
    Objective

    • The main objective for choosing this topic for


    our project are-
    • To collect and analyze information on the cdm
    • To understand the situation of our nation
    during the time period
    • To know of what led to the cdm
    causes of civil disobedience movment

    • Three primary factors that fueled the civil


    disobedience movement were:
    *Establishment of Simon Commission-
    In November 1927 the Indian Statutory
    Commission, popularly known as the Simon
    Commission was introduced to recommend
    further constitutional reforms in India by the
    British government in the United Kingdom
    However, no Indian was nominated as a member of the commission
    as the British government's decided to exclude Indians from the
    Simon Commission stating that they were unfit to take the next steps
    in constitutional reforms, which led to indignation in India.

    As a result, there were huge protests and strikes everywhere in India.

    *Demand for Dominion Status-


    The British Indian government was given a year to agree to the INC's
    demands for dominion status (Swaraj) at the Indian National
    Congress (INC) meeting in Calcutta in December 1928.
    If it was unsuccessful, the Congress declared that a civil disobedience
    movement under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi will take
    place to achieve nothing less than total independence from
    the foreign dominion.
    *Protests Against the Arrest of Social Revolutionaries-

    On April 8, 1929, two members of the Hindustan Socialist Republican Army (HSRA), Bhagat
    Singh and Batukeshwar Dutt, were imprisoned for throwing off bombs that were
    harmless within the Central Legislative Assembly.
    Members of the HSRA went on a prolonged hunger strike in prison to demand better
    treatment for political prisoners.
    The death of one of them, Jatin Das, on the strike's 64th day provoked some of the biggest
    protests in the nation
    The British government's lack of sincerity in granting Dominion Status, however, soon
    became apparent to nationalist leaders.
    Jawaharlal Nehru presided over an emergency meeting of the INC in Lahore in December
    1929, during which the INC declared "Purna Swaraj"—complete independence—as the
    Congress's objective.
    Furthermore, the INC gave Mahatma Gandhi permission to start his extensive campaign of
    civil disobedience whenever and wherever he pleased.
    Direct effects of the movement
    • Following Gandhi's ceremony in Dandi, the country began to defy the salt rules. There
    were large protests in Madras, Calcutta, and Karachi as a reaction to Nehru's
    imprisonment in April 1930 for violating the salt rule. Gandhi was arrested on May 4,
    1930, following his announcement that he would lead an attack on the Dharasana Salt
    Works on India's west coast. Following Gandhi's imprisonment, there were large
    demonstrations in Bombay, Delhi, Calcutta, and Sholapur, where the reaction was the
    strongest. People of all age were involved in the Civil Disobedience Movement,
    including students, women, indigenous people, business owners and small traders, as
    well as workers and peasants. Several provinces also ignored their salt prohibitions,
    with varying degrees of success.
    • Following in Gandhi's path, C. Rajgopalchari led a similar march from Trichinopoly to
    Vedaranyam in Tamil Nadu. At the same time, Sarojini Naidu, an influential Congress
    leader, headed the movement in Darasana, Gujarat. The police launched a lathi
    charge, severely injuring over 300 satyagrahis. As a consequence, there were mass
    demonstrations, hartals, a refusal to support  foreign goods, and, later, a refusal to pay
    taxes. This movement drew a million people, many of whom were women.
    impacts of cdm
    • The impact of the civil disobedience movement reverberated far and wide. It created distrust
    towards the British government and laid the foundation for the freedom struggle, and
    popularised the new method of propaganda like the Prabhat, pheris, pamphlets, etc. Following
    the defiance of forest law in Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Central province and the refusal to
    pay the rural ‘Chaukidari tax’ in Eastern India, the government ended the oppressive salt tax.
    • More Participants and Prisoners than the Non cooperation movement: The Civil Disobedience
    Movement had a much larger number of participants than the Non-Cooperation Movement.
    More than three times as many Satyagrahis were imprisoned.
    • Contrary to the Non-Cooperation Movement, the Civil Disobedience Movement had a far
    higher participation rate and a higher number of prisoners. There were more than three times
    as many Satyagrahis behind bars.
    • Ban and Reduction on Foreign Imports and Land Revenues: The amount of clothing and
    cigarettes imported from abroad was reduced by half. Additionally, the government received
    less money from excise taxes on alcohol and land.
    • participation of Poor and illiterate people were seen in this movement in great numbers, and
    many of them were not afraid to go to jail for a  cause.
    • Involvement of Women and Students:Women and students
    joined in the movement in great numbers, which was a liberating
    experience for Indian women who were doing so in such big
    numbers for the first time in public.
    • Muslim participation: Muslims took a significant role in Bengal
    and the North-West Frontier Province. Muslim weavers were
    successfully mobilized in Bihar, Delhi, and Lucknow.
    • Negotiation with Mahatma Gandhi for the First Time: Most
    importantly, as previously stated, it was the first time that the
    government negotiated with Mahatma Gandhi and Congress on
    an equal footing, which had not occurred previously in the
    freedom struggle.
    The reaction of the British government 

    • In November 1930, the British government


    convened the first round table conference to
    discuss the reforms for Simon Commission.   The
    Indian National Congress,  boycotted it. Indian
    princes, the Muslim League, the Hindu
    Mahasabha, and others attended the conference.
    However nothing came of it. The British realized
    that without the involvement of Congress, there
    wouldn't be any real constitutional reform.
    • Lord Irwin, the viceroy, attempted to persuade
    Congress to take part in the second round
    table congress. Gandhi and Irwin reached an
    agreement in which the government agreed to
    release all political prisoners facing no charges
    of violence in return for Congress suspending
    the civil disobedience movement. The
    congress decided to take part in the 2nd
    round table congress in Karachi in 1931,
    presided over by Vallabhbhai Patel. Gandhi
    represented the meeting in September 1931.
    The karachi session
    • A significant agreement on fundamental rights and economic policy was passed at the
    Karachi session. Apart from outlining the nationalist movement's policy on the
    country's social and economic problems, it guaranteed fundamental rights to all
    citizens, regardless of caste or religion, and advocated for the nationalization of
    industries. The session was attended by Indian princes, Hindu, Muslim, and Sikh
    communal leaders. However, their participation was solely to pursue their vested
    interests. None of them cared about Independence of the nation. As a result, the
    second round table conference was a failure, and no agreement was reached. The
    government's repression became more severe, and Gandhi and other leaders were
    arrested. In total, approximately 12,000 people were arrested.
    • Following the movement's withdrawal in 1939, Congress issued a resolution
    demanding the formation of a constituent assembly elected by the people based on
    universal adult franchise. And that only such an assembly could write India's
    constitution. Even if Congress did not succeed, it inspired a large number of people to
    join the mass movement. Radical goals for the reform of Indian society were also
    adopted.
    Lasting effects of civil disobediance
    movement
    • Civil disobedience did not immediately lead to the
    nation's freedom. But it  did, however, play an important role
    in deepening the social roots of the freedom struggle.
    • It destroyed people's trust in the British government.
    • It reawakened the desire to fight the elections.
    • It strengthened the social foundations of the freedom
    struggle.
    • It brought women out of their homes to participate in politics,
    making them equal partners in the struggle for freedom.
    • It popularised new propaganda methods such as the Prabhat
    Pheris, pamphlets, and so on.
    methodology
    • The  historical method of research was used in this
    project, where we did some preliminary information
    • Then we collected raw data from
    • internet
    • textbook
    • Journal
    • Encyclopedia
    • Documentaries
    • We mostly used secondary source of data for this project.
    Conclusion
    • Although The Civil Disobedience Movement failed to achieve
    any positive outcome, it was an important Juncture in the
    history of Indian Independence.

    • Sathyagraha was put on a firm footing through its large scale


    usage in the movement.

    • the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi had a beneficial impact.

    • The warring factions within the Congress united under the aegis
    of the Civil Disobedience Movement, led by Mahatma Gandhi
