Did the national movement in india span all section of the indian society?comment
Answers
Yes, the nationalist movement in India spans all sections of Indian society. Most of the nationalist movements in India were organized by the people themselves. For instance, all sections of the society including women, children, political leaders and traders took part in the Dandi march to launch a collective struggle against the newly introduced salt taxes.
Thereafter, people launched the Civil Disobedience Movement; they continued the production of salt and boycotted foreign clothes and goods. Various tribes who were affected by the forest policies of the colonial administration rebelled against them such as the Gudem rebellion.
The people of India participated on large scale in the freedom movements including, the Cripps mission, the Simon commission etc. The main reason why the nationalist struggle in India was strong in India was that all the groups of society were involved in the struggle.
