The First World War Forced recruitment of soldiers bred resentment in villages. The First World War created a new economic and political situation by leading to huge expenditures in defence which were to be financed by increasing taxes and raising custom duties. Crop failures and spread of influenza epidemic led to widespread hardships. Muslims were disenchanted with the treatment meted out to Ottoman Empire by the imperial powers. This led to a groundswell of support for non-cooperation. The business classes reacted against policies that restricted their business.

During the First World War, the British army recruited many people from rural India. To finance the defence expenditure, high custom duties and income taxes were imposed. During 1918-21, many parts of India were affected with shortage of crops. This caused resentment towards the British rule, and national movement got its boost.

On the other hand, the first World War broke the British Empire to a large extent, both politically and economically. The growth of the British empire declined and that too helped the growth of national movements in the British colonies. Furthermore, developments in transport/shipping and communications sector helped too. 

Kihilafat movement was also responsible to the growth of national movement as after the end of first world War there were rumors peace treaty that was imposed on the Khalifa. It was considered a harsh treaty and muslims were very angry. Mahatman Gandhi used this as an opportunity to unite Muslims with Hindus. He launched khilafat movement to oppose it with the collaboration of both Hindus and Muslims. This was a huge boost to the growth of nationalism in India.
