The slogan was "No Taxation Without Representation" raised by Indian Nationalists against the provisions of Indian Nationals Act 1892 where Indians were allowed membership in the Council of Governal General of India, indirectly elected (7 members). The council was given right to discuss on annual budget but they were excluded from voting.
The nationalists were dissatisfied and demanded large share for Indians in council with more powers.
They demanded Indian control over public purse and thus came the slogan (taken from American independence Struggle against Stamp Act, 1776).

I made an error. It's Indian Councils Act, not Nationals Act

- British established 13 colonies in America.
- Most of these colonies were occupied by people from England who had settled in America to cultivate land , run small work shops and conduct trade.
- The British parliament assumed powers to make laws for the American state but the people of those states did not vote for the parliament.
- The laws passed were always favoured English traders.
- The American colonies therefore raised the slogan 'No taxation without representation'.
