Why Did Mahatma Gandhi Launch the ‘Non-cooperation Movement’? How Did This Movement Unite the Country? Explain.

Answer:  The Non-cooperation Movement led by Mahatma Gandhi was in the year 192. As the British emerged in India and were successful to gain control quickly because there was no unity among the Indians. 

With the launch of Non-cooperation, Gandhi focused on self-reliance, Boycott western goods, and demanded independence from the British Raj. 

A national movement like this brought Indians in unity as they held hands together to publicly burn British goods, weave their own clothes, and as a union stopped the British from doing injustice to them.
