India 1914-1930
Subjects / History / India, 1900-1949
In this title, we will start off by looking at how the First World War impacted upon relations between Britain and India. We will then explore how unrest in India led to the British slaughter of Indian civilians at Amritsar. The 'Amritsar Massacre' was a key turning point and did much to increase Indian opposition to British rule. In Chapter Three, we will introduce Mohandas Gandhi, who is known as Mahatma. Gandhi pushed forward his idea of non-violent, non-cooperation with the British. In Chapter Four, we will meet Jawaharlal Nehru, who led Congress from 1929, and Muhammad Ali Jinnah - the leader of the Muslim League. We will also see how Britain's attempt to deal with the growing unrest in India through the 'Simon Commission' failed, and only resulted in Congress demanding full independence for the first time.
