Solution
(II) is the reason for (I).
Explanation:
The Early Nationalists (Moderates) relied on constitutional methods, petitions, persuasion, and cooperation with the British, and so were unwilling to openly back the confrontational boycott/Swadeshi campaign; the boycott directly conflicted with their policy of “petition and persuasion,” which is why they did not want to extend support.
