Hint. Students may be write some events related with the Civil Disobedience Movement which was launched by Gandhiji during freedom struggle in 1930. You can consult your textbook page no. 371 and 372. On these pages some secret reports related with various provinces have been published.
You should be very careful while using the contents given within the reports and you should not accepts each and every word as truth or the last word of the god because always remember that old secret reports are written as direction provided by very high officials with biased attitude.
