The "Non Cooperation Movement" in 1920's included surrender of titles, resignation from nominated seats in local government bodies, boycott of government educational institutions, law courts and foreign goods. Swadeshi also was included later.

• The movement aimed at boycotting schools, offices and courts.
• There was mass boycott of foreign goods but no intention of looting shops and factories. Violence did erupt at a few places, but the movement was largely peaceful.
• Many leaders renounced their titles and left their government jobs.
• The movement also aspired to spread the use of the charkha, enrol people as primary members of the Congress and raise money for the Tilak-Swaraj fund.

'The Civil Disobedience was organized against repressive laws. Gandhi, supported by Congress had started the agitation for reduction in land revenue, abolition of salt tax, cutting down military expenditure and levying duty on foreign cloth etc.

• Breaking of the law was the main agenda of the movement.
• Picketing of liquor shops, burning of foreign goods, etc. were common.
• A more violent movement than Non Cooperation Movement.
• Example attack on Dharsana salt factory .
