Source-Swaraj in the Plantations
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,
and in fact they were rarely given such permission. When they heard of the Non-Cooperation Movement,
thousands of workers defied the authorities, left the plantations and headed home. They believed that Gandhi
Raj was coming and everyone would be given land in their own villages. They, however, never reached their
destination. Stranded on the way by a railway and steamer strike, they were caught by the police and brutally
beaten up.
