Boycott of British Goods

The boycott of British goods was a collective action during the Indian independence movement, where Indians refused to buy or use products made in Britain. This was done to protest British colonial rule, policies, and taxes, aiming to weaken Britain's economic hold on India. By promoting local produce and boycotting British imports, Indians sought to demonstrate their desire for self-rule and economic independence. The movement mobilized people across social classes, fostering unity and resistance, and was a key strategy in the broader push for India's independence.
