Solution

The correct option is B The peasants and the police
Mahatma Gandhi was against violent movements. He abruptly called off the Non-Cooperation Movement when, in February 1922, a crowd of peasants set fire to a police station in Chauri Chaura. Twenty-two policemen were killed on that day. The peasants were provoked because the police had fired on their peaceful demonstration.
