\nAmong the given options, all princely states generally did NOT support the Congress during the Civil Disobedience Movement against the British Crown. However, the question asks to identify one specific state that fits this description. While all fit the general truth, Junagadh stands out historically for its ruler’s strong inclination away from alignment with the Indian Union path envisioned by Congress, particularly evident in 1947. This suggests a consistent political stance divergent from Congress goals, making it a plausible answer for “did NOT support” in a comparative sense, assuming the question intends to differentiate based on the degree or nature of non-support or opposition.

\nPrincely states were under British paramountcy and their rulers were generally loyal to the British Crown. Supporting the Indian National Congress’s Civil Disobedience Movement, which aimed to challenge British rule, would have been an act against the paramount power, which no ruler would officially endorse. Therefore, none of the princely states *supported* Congress against the British. The question is likely asking which one most clearly exemplified the stance of non-support, or perhaps had a ruler particularly known for their antagonism towards the nationalist movement.
\n<\/section>\n
\nPraja Mandal movements advocating for responsible government and aligned with Congress goals emerged within many princely states, including Mysore, Bhavnagar, and Junagadh. These movements were generally suppressed by the state administrations, demonstrating the rulers’ lack of support for the nationalist agenda. Junagadh’s later history of attempting to join Pakistan despite its population’s majority being Hindu and its geographical location within India is indicative of a ruler with a clear stance opposed to the Congress vision for India, which might be seen as a continuation of its earlier non-support for Congress activities against the British. While Bhavnagar smoothly acceded to India and Mysore was also integrated, Junagadh’s Nawab’s actions in 1947 are a strong marker of its historical position vis-a-vis the Indian nationalist mainstream led by Congress.
