Many factors played a role in the development of a feeling of collective belonging among Indians from different regions.
The image of Bharat Mata, created by Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay became the primary visual representation of the Indian nation. Moved by the nationalist sentiment, many other artists, including Rabindranath Tagore, re-adapted this image. It encouraged a nationalist fervor among Indian nationalists and it was widely circulated among the Indian populace.
The flag developed during the Swadeshi movement and the tricolour flag designed by Gandhiji both came to have great political importance to the Indian public. Holding these flag during demonstrations and protests became a sign of defiance against the colonial government.
While the colonial government worked to crush the spirit of nationalism among Indians, national leaders sought to glorify India’s past achievements during the pre-colonial period. This was done in order to instill a sense of pride among the general populace and rouse the public to participate in the national political process.
Nationalist leaders also turned their attention to folk tales and ballads as these had great cultural reach. Indian folklore was reinterpreted and used many a times for subtle or open political propaganda
