Vikas Kumar answered |
HIND SWARAJ, the title of the first definitive writing of Mahatma Gandhi, and which continues to evoke critical interest the world over even now, literally means ‘self-rule in India’.
This small book of about 30,000 words was written in Gujarati, in November 1909, on board the ship during Gandhi's return trip from England to South Africa after an abortive mission, within 10 days, 40 of the 275 pages being written with left hand. As stated by Gandhi himself: "I wrote the entire Hind Swaraj for my dear friend Dr. Pranjivan Mehta. All the argument in the book is reproduced almost as it took place with him." [CWMG 71: 238] It was published in the Indian Opinion in Natal and was soon banned by the Government in India because it contained 'matter declared to be seditious'. On that, Gandhi published the English translation from Natal to show the innocuous nature of its contents. The ban was finally lifted on 21 December 1938.

Neha Patel answered |
Rowlatt Act of 1919 named after British judge Sir Sidney Rowlatt effectively authorized the government to imprison for a maximum period of two years, without trial, any person suspected of terrorism living in the Raj. The Rowlatt Act gave British imperial authorities power to deal with revolutionary activities. But in this course of action even the innocent people were targeted and had no scope of " vakil, appeal or dalil". By this act, the British severely clamped the rights of Indians. Hence, Indians opposed this Act.

The militant Guerrilla Movement was launched by the tribal peasants of Gudem Hills in Andhra Pradesh.
The militant guerrilla movement was led by Alluri Sitaram Raju, the follower of Mahatma Gandhi. The colonial government had closed large forest areas to prevent people from entering the forest to graze their cattle, to collect firewood and fruits which enraged the hill people. The hill people revolted when the government forced them to contribute. The Gudem rebels attacked police stations, attempted to kill British officials and carried on guerrilla warfare for achieving Swaraj.

It was a political party formed in India in January 1923 after the Gaya annual conference in December 1922 of the National Congress, that sought greater self-government and political freedom for the Indian people from the British Raj.

Gandhiji suggested that development ought to unfold in stages. It should start with the surrender of titles that the public authority granted and a blacklist of common administrations, armed forces, police, courts, regulative gatherings, schools, and unfamiliar merchandise. Then, if the public authority utilized suppression, a complete, thoughtful, noncompliance mission would be sent off. Through the mid-year of 1920, Mahatma Gandhi and Shaukat Ali visited broadly, activating well-known help for the development.

Assertion is true but reason is false. The Simon Commission was greeted with the slogan ‘Go back Simon’ because it did not have a single Indian member. They were all British but had come to look into the functioning of the constitutional system in India and suggest changes. Gandhiji went on the Dandi March on 11 March 1930. The reason thus does not explain the assertion.

Assertion: Rich peasants became enthusiastic supporters of the Civil Disobedience Movement, organising their communities and at times forcing reluctant members to participate in the boycott programmes.
Reason: However, they were deeply happy when the movement was called off in 1931 with revenue rates being lowered.
The correct answer is option 'C' - If the assertion is true but the reason is false.
Explanation:
The assertion states that rich peasants actively supported the Civil Disobedience Movement by organizing their communities and sometimes even pressuring reluctant members to participate in boycott programs. This is true because during the Civil Disobedience Movement, people from different backgrounds, including rich peasants, joined hands to fight against British colonial rule. The movement aimed to achieve independence by non-violent means and involved various forms of resistance, including boycotts of British goods and institutions.
However, the reason provided in the statement is not a correct explanation for the assertion. The reason suggests that rich peasants were deeply happy when the movement was called off in 1931 with revenue rates being lowered. This is not necessarily true as the reason does not directly explain why rich peasants became enthusiastic supporters of the movement. The revenue rates being lowered might have been a positive outcome for the rich peasants, but it does not explain their active participation and support for the movement.
The involvement of rich peasants in the Civil Disobedience Movement can be attributed to several factors:
1. Economic grievances: Rich peasants, despite being relatively economically well-off compared to the poor peasants, also faced exploitative practices and high revenue rates imposed by the British colonial government. Their active participation in the movement can be seen as a response to these economic grievances.
2. Nationalist sentiment: Rich peasants, like many others, were driven by a strong sense of nationalism and a desire for independence. They saw the movement as a means to achieve freedom from British rule and actively supported it.
3. Leadership role: Rich peasants, owing to their economic status and influence in their communities, often assumed leadership roles during the movement. They organized boycott programs, mobilized people, and played a crucial role in sustaining the momentum of the movement.
In conclusion, while it is true that rich peasants became enthusiastic supporters of the Civil Disobedience Movement, the reason provided in the statement does not correctly explain their motivation. The reason focuses on the outcome of the movement rather than the factors that led to their active participation. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C' - If the assertion is true but the reason is false.
