Answer:

hey here is your answer

The people belonging to different communities develop a sense of collective belonging through :-

1.The creation of the image of Bharat mata by Bankim chandra chattopadhoy created a sense of national belonging.

2.The Nationalists developed a sense of collective belonging amongst the people by reminding the people about the rich culture and history of our country.

3. Creation of National identity through Folklore.

4.The creation of Indian flag by Gandhiji

Many factors played a role in the development of collective belonging...in India

1) The image of Bharat mata created by Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyaya became the primary visual representation of Indian nation. Great artists and poets along with political leaders glorified the history of India and achievements...

2) The flag developed during the Swadeshi movement and the tricolour flag designed by Gandhiji both came to have great political importance for Indian public. This became a sign of defiance against the colonial government.

3) Nationalist leaders turned their attention to folk tales and ballads these had great cultural reach. Indian folklore was reinterpreted and used many a times for political propaganda.

groups united.

different Non-Cooperation Movements, Civil

Disobedience movements, the wars like 1857,

history, fiction, folklores, folk songs, prints, icons

and symbols etc. all these helped in unifying the

Indians and inspired a feeling of nationalism in

them.

c. The image of India was first visualized as Bharat

Mata by Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay and

also a hymn ‘Vande 3 Mataram’ was written by

him in 1870s. This hymn was later included in

his novel Anandmath and sung in the Swadeshi

Movement in Bengal. The image of Bharat

Mata was portrayed as calm, composed, divine

and spiritual which acquired different forms in

different years by different artists. This i

mage of

India developed the ideas of nationalism in India.

d. The Indian folklores were revived and the folk

tales were recorded and sung by bards which gave

a true picture of the traditional Indian culture

and tells how it was ruined by the Britishers.
