Answer: (B) 2 only

Chauri Chaura, in Gorakhpur district, saw a mob burn a police station on 5 February 1922, killing policemen, which led Gandhi to suspend the Non-Cooperation Movement. Statement 1 is wrong because the incident was in 1922, not 1930 when the Civil Disobedience Movement began. Only statement 2 is correct.
