The Khilafat-Non-Co-operation alliance (1919-22) mobilised large sections of urban Muslims behind the Congress-led national struggle. This convergence was possible because both movements shared a pronounced anti-imperialist thrust against British rule, which is precisely what the Reason states; therefore both statements are true and the Reason is the correct explanation.
