Nationalism in India
Nationalism in India refers to the movement that arose during British rule, emphasizing pride in Indian culture, history, and identity, and advocating for independence from colonial rule. It motivated Indians to unite across diverse regions, languages, and religions to achieve self-governance. Key leaders like Mahatma Gandhi promoted nonviolent resistance, inspiring collective effort. Post-independence, Indian nationalism continues to shape the nation’s identity, emphasizing sovereignty, unity, and progress. It reflects a collective desire to preserve cultural heritage while fostering a sense of belonging and pride among all citizens.
