While non-payment of taxes was a potential form of civil disobedience, it was not a primary or universally implemented part of the core program of the Non-cooperation Movement (1920-1922) from its outset. The movement's main program included boycotts of government schools, colleges, law courts, foreign goods, and the surrender of titles.
