Solution

The correct option is B Gorakhpur

The Non-Cooperation movement was in full swing when in Chauri Chaura, Gorakhpur, the police fired upon a Congress procession of 3,300 peasants. The angry crowd set the police station on fire, killing 22 policemen. Gandhiji had always emphasised that the movement should be peaceful and non-violent . After this incident he called off the movement unilaterally in 1922.
