Answer 2

Answer:

The two main features of the anti- Partition agitation were the

Swadeshi movement and the boycott. In the word Swadeshi ”swa” means

“own” (compare the Latin suus) and “desh” means country, the letter “i” being

the usual adjectival termination ; Swadesh therefore means “one’s own

country”, and Swadeshi, “pertaining to one’s own country”.

The Swadeshi

movement accordingly consisted, economically, of using goods produced in

the country in preference to those imported from abroad, and politically of

making the administration as far as possible Indian. The boycott was mainly

the boycott of all kinds of foreign goods, particularly those of English

manufacture; and the Hindu agitators expressed it. Swadesh and boycott

were positive and negative aspects of the same thing. Swadeshi, however,

had a political side which went much further; it aimed at a change in the

Government of the country with which the use of foreign goods had little or

nothing to do, namely, self – Government or Swaraj.

There has been some controversy about the meaning of Swaraj,

or it ought to be written Swarajya. As explained above ”swa” means “own”,

and “rajya” means “rule", i.e., what a raja, or king, exercises over his raj, or

kingdom. Hence Swaraj means Self Government, and the official translation of “Local Self – Government” is “Sthanik Swarajya”. It was,

however, new to Bengal when it was introduced to the local leaders of Indian

National Congress in Calcutta, in 1906, by Dadabhai Naoroji, the celebrated

Parsi leader from Bombay. Through these two movements, then, Swadeshi

and boycott, it was hoped to force the reversal of the Partition by bringing

pressure to bear on the Government and on the British elector, the

assumption being that the former was very sensitive to agitation, and the latter

to anything that touched his pocket.

The Indian national war was a revolutionary movement in the

initial stage. Even so, the two years from 1905 to 1907 were a period of only

passive resistance, the nationalists carrying on a vigorous anti- British

propaganda and indulging in free use of tongue and pen. They did it with

great sacrifice and their protest found full expression in the celebrated

Swadeshi movement – the first Indian National Movement – as Jawaharlal

Nehru rightly termed it.

There were twin agitations, namely Swadeshi and

boycott of British goods. The weapon of boycott was turned not against an

individual but against British goods.
