Plz mark as brainliest !!!
The literature particularly the novels were used by the Indians as a tool to create unity, arouse and spread patriotism,expose the British policies and create enthusiasm among the people to fight British colonialism. Many novels established links with the past which created an idea of glorified past and sense of national pride among people.
We see Bankimchandra Chattopadhya in his novel Anandmath shows various patriotic acts and sacrifices by his characters in service of motherland and against the British subjugation. It also shows victory of common unarmed Indians against the British trained and armed soldiers.
Similarly in his novels The Village, Across The Black Waters, and The Sword And The Sickle, Mulk Raj Anand explores Gandhian ideology and the freedom struggle.
Likewise Rabindarnath Tagore in his novels Gora and , Ghare Baire (The Home and the World) exposed the exploitation of the British and created patriotism and spark of freedom movement among people.
