Solution

Indians Unite Against British Goods

Calcutta, 1905: The Swadeshi Movement has begun as a strong protest against the partition of Bengal by the British government. Indian leaders are urging people to boycott British-made goods and use Indian products instead.

People are burning foreign cloth and supporting Indian industries, local traders, and craftsmen. Students, women, and workers are also taking part in rallies and protests.

A young protester said, “We must support Indian goods and stand united against British rule. Swadeshi will make our country stronger.”

The Swadeshi Movement was important because it promoted Indian industries, encouraged self-reliance, and strengthened nationalism. It united people and became an important step in India’s struggle for independence.
