Best Answer

Muslims and Hindus founded groups to fight for independence these groups often worked together under Gandhi's leadership. The independence movement adopted a program of civil disobedience and nonviolent noncooperation, which gained worldwide attention and support. Indians hurt Britain economically by refusing to by British cloth and refusing to carry on their normal work on railroads and in factories some Indian nationalists voted and used violence to protest British rule. Indian boycotts and strikes took an enormous financial toll on Britain. Worldwide attention was focused on the movement and sympathies lay with the protestors. Britain did not want to look bad in the eyes of the world by responding violently to nonviolent protest. The movement had a strong and charismatic leader in Gandhi.
