Explanation

Bardoli is located in the state of Gujarat. Chauri-Chaura is presently located in Uttar Pradesh. It was here that during the Non-Cooperation Movement, on 4 February 1922, a violent mob set a police station on fire, in which 23 policemen were killed. Saddened by this incident, Gandhiji withdrew the Non-Cooperation Movement on 12 February 1922. Yerwada Jail is located in Maharashtra. At present, Noakhali is a part of Bangladesh, not the state of West Bengal. Before the partition of India, it was a part of the Bengal Province.
