Solution
The agitation brought about ‘real awakening’ through its programmes like the Swadeshi and Boycott Movements, involvement of masses in this movement, involving women and youth, popularising the concept of National Education, strengthening the bonds between Hindus and Muslims despite attempts by the British to draw a wedge between the two communities. The cry Vande-Mataram filled the air everywhere.
