A
Only one
B
Only two
C
Only three
Correct Answer
D
All the four

Explanation

Option (C) is correct because the Non-Cooperation Programme included the boycott of law courts and foreign cloth (I), the strict observance of non-violence (II), and the establishment of Panchayats as alternative dispute resolution mechanisms (IV). Statement III is incorrect because the movement mandated the complete surrender of titles and honorary posts, rather than their retention. The core concept tested is the specific "constructive" and "destructive" components of the Non-Cooperation Movement as adopted during the Nagpur session of the Indian National Congress in 1920.
