Indian Nationalist Movement

The Indian Nationalist Movement was a struggle during British colonial rule, where Indians sought self-rule and independence. It grew in response to grievances like unfair laws, economic exploitation, and cultural disempowerment. Leaders like Mahatma Gandhi promoted nonviolent protests, civil disobedience, and unity among diverse communities to challenge British authority. The movement evolved over decades, gaining mass support and eventually leading to India gaining independence in 1947. It was a pivotal effort to establish India’s sovereignty, emphasizing national identity, rights, and self-determination for its people.
