Workers too had their own understanding of Mahatma Gandhi and the
notion of swaraj .For Plantation workers in Assam , freedom meant the
right to move freely in and out of the Confined space in which they were
enclosed ,and it meant retaining a link with the village From which they
had come . Under the Inland Emigration Act of 1859, plantation workers
were Not permitted to leave the tea gardens without permission. When
they heard of the non – Cooperation movement, thousands of workers
defied the authorities , left the plantations and Headed home. They
interpreted the term swaraj in their own ways, imaging it to be a time
when all suffering and all troubles would be over .Yet when the tribal’s
chanted Gandhi’s name and raised slogans demanding `swatantra bharat’
they were also emotionally related to an all India agitation When they
acted in the name of Mahatma Gandhi ,or linked their movement to that
of the congress they were identifying with a movement which went
beyond the limits of their immediate locality.
