The primary reason for the Khilafat Movement was to exert pressure on the British government to keep the Ottoman Sultan in power as the Caliph of Islam after the Ottoman Empire collapsed at the end of the war.<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Defeat of the Ottoman Empire:<\/strong> The Ottoman Empire was defeated in the First World War.

Many Muslims and Hindus in India were\u00a0<strong>disillusioned with British colonial<\/strong>\u00a0rule and sought to express their discontent by aligning with the cause of the Ottoman Empire.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>Course of the Khilafat Movement<\/h2>\r\n<p>In order to put pressure on the British government, to address the injustices of the Punjab wrongs and to defend Khalifa\u2019s temporal powers, the Khilafat movement was established in 1919 under the leadership of Mohammad Ali and Shaukat Ali (commonly referred to as the Ali brothers), Abul Kalam Azad, Hasrat Mohani, and others.<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Khilafat Committee:\u00a0<\/strong>A Khilafat Committee was established in Bombay at the start of 1919. Muslim businessmen took the lead, but their efforts were limited to Khalifa-supporting meetings, petitions, and delegations.\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>However, a militant trend within the movement soon started to emerge. A moderate approach did not satisfy the militant trend's leaders. Instead, they advocated for the start of a national movement.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Delhi Khilafat Conference:\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0The conference presided over by Gandhi advocated, for the first time, at the All India Khilafat Conference in Delhi (22-23 November 1919) non-cooperation with the British Government in India.\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Hasrat Mohani called for a boycott of British goods during this conference.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Non-cooperation with the Government:\u00a0<\/strong>The Khilafat leadership made it very clear that they would cease all cooperation with the government if the terms of the post-war peace were unfavourable to Muslims.\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Shaukat Ali alerted the British in April 1920 that if they didn't succeed in appeasing the Indian Muslims, \"we would start a joint Hindu-Muslim movement of non-cooperation.\"<\/li>\r\n\t<li>In addition, Shaukat Ali placed emphasis on the fact that Mahatma Gandhi, who is respected by both Muslims and Hindus, would serve as the movement's leader.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Gandhi and the issue of Hindu-Muslim unity:\u00a0<\/strong>The Khilafat issue was not directly linked with politics in India, but the Khilafat leaders were eager to enlist the support of Hindus.\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Gandhi saw this as a chance to unite Hindus and Muslims in opposition to the British.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Until May 1920, Gandhi adopted a moderate stance despite his support for the Khilafat issue and his role as the head of the All India Khilafat Committee.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>However, the publication of the terms of the \u201cTreaty of Sevres\u201d and the Publication of the \u201cHunter Committee Report\u201d on the 'Jallianwala Bagh Massacre' in May 1920 made Indians angry and led Gandhi to openly take the Khilafat issue.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Programme of non-cooperation:<\/strong>\u00a0From June 1\u20133, 1920, the Central Khilafat Committee met in Allahabad. Several leaders from the Congress and Khilafat were present at the meeting. A programme of non-cooperation with the government was announced at this meeting. This was to include:\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>boycott of titles conferred by the Government,<\/li>\r\n\t<li>boycott of civil services, army and police, that is, all government jobs<\/li>\r\n\t<li>non-payment of taxes to the Government.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Support from Congress:<\/strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Despite Gandhi\u2019s support on the Khilafat issue, the Congress was divided initially.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Later, Congress felt that it was an excellent chance to unite Muslims and Hindus and strengthen Muslim involvement in further national movements.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>In turn, the Muslim League decided to fully support the Congress and its political agitation in full potential.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Merger with Non-cooperation Movement:\u00a0<\/strong>The Khilafat Movement eventually merged with Gandhi's Non-Cooperation Movement.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>Khilafat Movement Role in India<\/h2>\r\n<p>Though the Khilafat Movement was merged and subsumed under the larger movement, the <a href=\"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/upsc-exam\/non-cooperation-movement\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Non-cooperation Movement<\/strong><\/a> and the issue of Khilafat itself were diluted due to the political reforms of Mustafa Kamal Pasha in Turkey.
