The Chauri Chaura incident occurred on February 4, 1922, in a small town in Uttar Pradesh during the Non-Cooperation Movement. A peaceful protest turned violent after police opened fire on demonstrators. In anger, the protesters attacked the local police station and set it on fire, resulting in the deaths of 22 policemen.

This event deeply shocked Mahatma Gandhi, who believed firmly in non-violence. As a result, he called off the entire Non-Cooperation Movement, marking a major turning point in India’s freedom struggle.

The incident highlighted both the power and the danger of mass movements, showing how a single spark of violence could change the course of history
