Answer

(II) is the reason for (I)

Explanation — Statement (I) is true because Gandhiji launched the Non-Cooperation Movement in 1920 against British rule.

Statement (II) is also true. Gandhiji believed that it was the duty of Indians not to cooperate with an unjust and evil government, just as one should cooperate with what is good.

This belief became the basis of the Non-Cooperation Movement. Gandhiji asked people to withdraw their support from British institutions, titles, schools and courts.

Therefore, Statement (II) is the reason for Statement (I).
