Question

Not all social group were moved by the abstract concept of Swaraj . Support the statement in the light

of Civil Disobedience movement of 1930s?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Not all the social groups were moved by the abstract concept of Swaraj.

One such group were the nation's untouchables who from around 1930 have begun to call themselves as Dalits or the oppressed. The Congress had ignored the Dalits for the fear of offending the high caste conservative Hindus. The Dalits wanted to form their own government and discuss various social and political issues.

After the non-cooperation movement, the Muslims felt alienated from the Congress. The Congress came to be more visibly associated with the Hindu Mahasabha. The Civil disobedience movement further represented the Muslims as a minority compared with the Hindu majority.This led to communal riots against the two communities.

Answer 2

Not all social groups were moved by the abstract concept of Swaraj. In support of the statement below are some points in light:

• The nation's untouchables, for example, began to refer to themselves as Dalits, or downtrodden, about 1930. For fear of alienating the high caste traditional Hindus, Congress had disregarded the Dalits. The Dalits desired to create their own administration and debate social and political concerns.
• Muslims felt estranged from Congress after the non-cooperation movement. The Hindu Mahasabha became more visible in the eyes of Congress. In addition, the civil disobedience campaign portrayed Muslims as a minority in comparison to the Hindu majority. This resulted in rioting between the two populations.
