Swadeshi
Swadeshi is a movement that encourages people to focus on buying and using goods made within their own country, rather than imported products. Originating in India during the independence struggle against British rule, it promotes economic self-sufficiency, supporting local industries, artisans, and businesses. By doing so, Swadeshi aims to strengthen the national economy, preserve cultural heritage, and foster a sense of pride and independence. It emphasizes the importance of reducing reliance on foreign goods, encouraging sustainable and indigenous development for the betterment of the nation.
