One of the popular beliefs in Bihar during the Non-Cooperation Movement of 1920-22 was that they would be victorious because Gandhi?

BPSC treated this question as having no correct option (cancelled).

Explanation

In 1918, Gandhiji successfully led the strike of mill workers in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, and in 1920 he launched non-violent non-cooperation with the British government. This included not only the boycott of goods, but also the boycott of institutions run by the British in India or run with their support—such as the legislature, courts, offices, or schools. This programme infused enthusiasm across the country, and the Non-Cooperation Movement shook the very foundations of British rule. Gandhiji also brought Hindus and Muslims together on a common platform. Due to the rise of Gandhiji as a great personality and the fear created among British rulers because of his actions, the people of Bihar developed the belief that victory would be theirs, because Gandhiji knew the way to defeat the British. The Bihar Public Service Commission considered option (a) as the answer in its preliminary answer key, but later deleted this question in the final answer key.
