Result
Your answer: —  ·  Correct: C
Explanation
The Non-Cooperation Movement (1920-22) transformed the Congress into a mass movement for the first time by involving peasants and workers (Statement I). It also psychologically liberated people, removing the fear of British authority and jails (Statement III). Statement II is incorrect because, while unity was strong during the movement, its suspension was followed by communal riots, not a growth in unity. Statement IV is incorrect as the British did not grant immediate concessions; they suppressed the movement and the next major reforms came much later.
