Question

How did the sense of collective belongingness developed other than the anti British feeling

Answer 1

Nationalist movements spread when people having a place with various regions and communities started to build up a sense of some collective belonging. Without a doubt, this sense of aggregate having a place created through the experience of joined struggles.

Be that as it may, many social processes also added to it. History, fiction, old stories, songs, mainstream prints and symbols, all had an impact really taking shape of nationalism. It was seen in India during its freedom movement.
