Because it gave an accurate traditional picture is the right answer.

The Indian nationalists' travel villages to accumulate folk songs and stories because they considered that the folklore presented the genuine picture of the popular culture. Therefore, to promote traditional culture the leaders of India began documenting folk poems and folk stories sung by the different poets. Consequently, the folklore played a significant role in uniting all the societies together against the Western powers that destroyed the popular Indian culture.
