During which movement was ‘Bihar Vidyapeeth’ established?

Concept: To identify the movement linked with an institution’s founding, match the institution’s dated establishment and purpose to the movement’s active phase. A movement that directly promoted the institution’s educational model provides the historical link.

Application

Bihar Vidyapeeth was established on 6 February 1921 as a national educational institution. That date and its purpose align with the Non-Cooperation Movement, launched in 1920, which encouraged national schools and colleges outside colonial institutions.

Contrast

• Swadeshi Movement: its principal phase followed the 1905 partition of Bengal and predates the 1921 founding.

• Non-Cooperation Movement: its 1920–1922 phase includes the 1921 founding and its national-education programme.

• Civil Disobedience Movement: it began in 1930, after Bihar Vidyapeeth had already been established.

• More than one of the above: the dated founding maps to one distinct movement phase, not multiple listed phases.

• None of the above: the 1921 date and national-education purpose do map to one listed movement.

Cross-check

The institution’s 6 February 1921 founding date falls between the launch and suspension of the Non-Cooperation Movement, confirming the chronological and institutional match.

Result

Bihar Vidyapeeth was established during the Non-Cooperation Movement.
