Solution
The aggressive nationalists had four planks for their programme: revivalism, swadeshi, boycott, and national education.
- Revivalism: Extremists tried to create a national movement based on people's religious beliefs. Tilak resurrected the Shivaji festival in 1895, honouring Rana Pratap and Shivaji as national heroes.
- Swadeshi: The concept of Swadeshi was centred on the usage of home-made items in order to stimulate Indian companies and create more chances for jobs and employment.
- Boycott: Boycott referred to the boycott of British goods, as well as government services, honours, and titles.
- National Education: New educational institutions were to be established to provide both religious and political education. National education encompassed secular, moral, and vocational education.
