The Chauri-Chaura incident occurred at Chauri-Chaura in the Gorakhpur district of United province on 4th February 1922. Mahatma Gandhi initiated the Non-Cooperation Movement in 1920, which soon spread throughout the nation and many individuals became involved with the movement. Following this movement, an incident occurred in Chauri Chaura on 4th February 1922. Some protesters who were participating in the Non-Cooperation movement in the Chauri Chaura district were fired upon by police. In retaliation, these protestors set fire to a police station. In the incident, three civilians and 22 policemen were killed, with many more injured. Following the incident, Gandhi halted the Non-Cooperation Movement stating that the protestors needed to be trained for the Non-Cooperation movement and fight without violence.
