The Swadeshi Movement was launched as a protest against the division of Bengal. In 1905, the British Government divided Bengal into two administrative provinces, Bengal and East Bengal & Assam, with the intention of weakening the nationalist movement. This move sparked widespread outrage and backlash among Indians. The Swadeshi Movement aimed to boycott British goods and promote the use of Indian goods as a means of economic resistance against British rule. The movement mobilized people from all sections of society and had a significant impact on the Indian independence movement. It also helped in fostering a sense of national unity and pride among the Indian population. Overall, the Swadeshi Movement was a crucial step in the fight against British colonialism and the demand for self-rule in India.
