Solution

The Civil Disobedience Movement was launched in 1930. It was considered as an active movement. It involved non – payment of taxes and land-revenue and violation of laws. It involved defiance of salt laws, boycott of liquor, foreign cloth and British goods of all kinds. It was an attempt at paralysing the administration by breaking some specific rules and regulations. The movement became violent in a matter of time.

The Non-Cooperation Movement was launched in 1920 by Gandhiji. It was considered as a passive movement. There were no tax campaigns in this movement. Many leaders renounced their titles and left their government jobs. The Non-Cooperation Movement sought to bring the working of the government to a standstill by not cooperating with the administration. It was not violent until the Chauri Chaura incident took place.
