Solution
Gopal Krishna Gokhale was the President of Indian National Congress session of 1905. He supported the anti-partition movement. Dadabhai Nowrojee was the President of 1906 session. For first time he pronounced the word 'Swaraj' from the stage. In his Presidential speech he gave the message that remain united, try sincerely and fulfill the aim of Swaraj, so that today we will be able to save lakhs of people suffering from poverty, hunger, diseases and India will get a respectable position among developed countries. In the same session Swaraj, Swadeshi, National Education and Boycott, this 4 point programme was unanimously accepted by the Indian National Congress. Due to Swadeshi movement we will be self sufficient. To follow the path of Swadeshi we need to bring together capital, resources, manpower and such other forces and from this the benefit of the country could be achieved. It was decided that boycotting of foreign goods is the first step and boycott of foreign rule will be the next step. Due to boycott we will be able to attack the roots of British imperialism, was the opinion of some of the leaders.
