It was a non-violent movement against British rule, and its volunteers wore red uniforms, so it was popularly called the Surkh Posh or Red Shirt Movement (Lal Kurti).

The Silk Letter Movement was a Deobandi conspiracy of 1913-1920, the Home Rule Movement was led by Tilak and Annie Besant in 1916, and the Khilafat Movement (1919-1924) supported the Ottoman Caliph.

Hence, Red Shirt Movement.
