Explanation: Major developments in the Indian politics occurred during 1922-28. Immediately, the withdrawal of the Non-Cooperation Movement led to demoralization in the nationalist ranks. Moreover, serious differences arose among the leaders, who had to decide how to prevent the Movement from lapsing into passivity. One school of thought, headed by C.R. Das and Motilal Nehru, advocated a new line of political activity under the changed conditions. They said that the nationalists should end the boycott of the Legislative Councils, enter them, obstruct their working according to the official plans, expose their weaknesses, transform them into the arenas of political struggle and, thus, use them to arouse public enthusiasm. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Dr. Ansari, Babu Rajendra Prasad and others, known as the =No-Changers‘, opposed Council entry. They warned that legislative politics would lead to neglect of work among the masses, weaken nationalist fervour and create rivalries among the leaders. They, therefore, continued to emphasise the constructive programme of spinning, temperance, Hindu-Muslim unity, removal of untouchability and grassroots work in the villages and among the poor. They said, gradually prepare the country for the new round of mass struggle. The =No-Changers‘ carried on quiet, constructive work. Symbolic of this work were hundreds of Ashrams, that came up all over the country, where young men and women promoted Charkha and Khadi, and worked among the lower castes and the tribal people. Hundreds of National schools and colleges came up, where young persons were trained in a non-colonial ideological framework. Moreover, constructive workers served as the backbone of the Civil Disobedience Movements as their active organizers. While the Swarajists and the =NoChangers‘ worked in their own separate ways, there was no basic difference between the two, and, because they kept on the best of terms and recognised each other‘s anti-imperialist character, they could readily unite later when the time was ripe for a new national struggle.
