Explanation

The passage directly states: "they were deeply disappointed when the movement was called off in 1931 without the revenue rates being revised. So when the movement was restarted in 1932, many of them refused to participate." This makes B the correct and only textbook-supported answer. Options A, C, and D are not mentioned in the source and are factually incorrect as per the chapter.
