History of our Freedom Movement

            The history of our freedom movement is not the only story. It has many diverse strands that connect and influence each other and tell the story of our people's struggle for freedom. The efforts of the mediators led to legal and constitutional changes. The zeal of the revolutionaries led to heroic actions and imaginary struggles. The agitation brought by Mahatma Gandhi at the Center got a wide response from all the people. Every movement feeds and enriches each other and ultimately leads to freedom. We will study these different movements in this blog and see how everyone was affected and led to the achievement of the common goal i.e. freedom.. Its members included Firozesh Mehta, Badruddin Tyabji, WC Bonerjee, Surendranath Banerjee, Anand Mohan Bose and Romesh Chandra Dutt. This organization was by no means the first such organization of the Indian people.

Rise Of Gandhi Bapu


            The English educated class in India gradually became politically conscious and many political organizations were formed between 1875 and 1885. Dwarkanath Ganguly of Calcutta, Ranade and G.V. Joshi, K.T., Bombay. Viraravavachari of Telang and Madras were already involved. With regional political organizations. The names of his organizations were Bharatiya Sangathan, Poona Sarvajanik Sabha, Bombay Presidency Association and Madras Mahajan Sabha respectively. The agenda of these organizations was limited and far from the ideal of complete independence. These organizations were raising their voices against the policies of the colonial regime which is perhaps unique to the interests of the Indians. The main points of concern associated with these organizations by the early nationalists were as follows: The separation of the Indian National Congress (INC) from other organizations was an easy attempt to provide the common political platform for the peoples of India which ended it. To claim that he represents the country. Nonetheless, British administrators tried to understand the importance of INC, but it was able to reflect the aspirations of the people. Thus, the most important and main objective of this organization was to create awareness among the people of a nation.

Indian National Congress (INS)

            The task was difficult due to the existence of diverse cultural, linguistic and religious traditions of the land. All the different forces had to be brought together against the common opposition, British imperialism. Initially the founders of INC hoped to influence the colonial government in matters that affected the well-being of the country and especially its economic upliftment. They expected that the colonial government would take steps to improve the situation if the problems of the 'nation' were brought to light through proper publicity. Thus, in the early years through lectures, the nationalists wrote in the newspapers about the major problems of the nation and the ways in which they could be remedied. The most valuable contribution of the so-called 'moderates' or early members of Congress was to form an economic critic. First Dadabhai Naoroji and then other nationalists discovered that instead of bringing the intellectual industrial revolution that Indian intellectuals were expecting, the British rule was impoverishing the nation and destroying its local handicraft production. This discovery led to some confusion among early nationalists who hoped that British rule would result in the modernization of India. Other concerns of the early Congress were as follows: The period between 1885-1905 is known as the period of mediation. In 1905, Lord Curzon, the then Governor General, declared the partition of Bengal. The province of Bengal at that time included the present states of West Bengal, Bihar and Jharkhand, Orissa and Assam.

            It also includes the present country Bangladesh, it was indeed a very large administrative unit. However the method of partition clearly showed the divided policies of the British. First, it was on the lines of religion, where Hindu-majority areas were separated from Muslim-majority areas. Apart from this the urban bases of the revived intellectuals (English educated upper caste Indians) were mainly separated from the cultivated areas (most notably jute producing areas), but there was an attempt to downplay the importance of Calcutta, where intellectuals from all over Bengal met and inspired each other. Give. The announcement was followed by widespread protests. Initially, the protests were moderated on the mediators' "prayer and petition" strategy, with petitions and memoranda addressed to the colonial government, and speeches, public meetings, and press campaigns. This was an attempt to influence public opinion in India and England. Despite these efforts, the partition of Bengal was declared in July 1905. As soon as the final announcement was made, protests broke out in Bengal. Protests were held all over Bengal and mainly not only in Calcutta, but also in small towns in the interior of Bengal. Dinajpur, Pabna, Faridpur, Dakka, Barisal etc.

            The decision to "boycott" British goods was first taken at one of these meetings. The proclamation of the proclamation of the Indigenous Movement was made at a meeting held at the Calcutta Townhall in August 1901 with the passage of a 'boycott' resolution, which brought about the unification of the hitherto fragmented leadership. The day the partition took place, i.e. October 16, 1905, a strike was called in Calcutta and a day of mourning was declared. People fasted and no fire was lit in the hearth of the kitchen. People paraded in the streets singing Bande Mataram. As a symbol of unity, the people of Bengal tied ashes on each other's wrists. This peculiar form of mass protest of ‘indigenous and boycott’ gained popularity among new members of Congress, who were more than average impatient to see a positive response to their efforts. Lokmanya Tilak took the message of boycott of domestic and foreign goods to Bombay and Pune; Ajit Singh and Lajpat Rai, Punjab and other parts of Northern India: Syed Haider Raza, President of Madras from Delhi and Chidambaram Pillai, who was also inspired by Bipinchandra Pal's extensive lecture tour.


Time For Swadeshi Call :

            In its Benaras session of 1905, chaired by Gokley of the INCA, he formally took the Indigenous call. Although the Congress supported the Swadeshi movement in Bengal, it did not envisage a further intensification of the movement or a cause of complete independence in all of India. The extremist leadership of Tilak, Bipinchandra Pal, Lala Lajpat Rai, Ob Robindo Ghosh etc. needs it. With this extremist pressure, Dadabhai Nauroji, in his presidential address to the Calcutta session of the Congress, encouraged that the ultimate goal of the INC was 'Swarajya or Swaraj'.
