Swadeshi Education Movement

The Swadeshi Education Movement emerged during India's struggle for independence, emphasizing the revival of indigenous knowledge, languages, and traditional educational practices. It promoted self-reliance by encouraging the use of local resources and Indian-created curricula, aiming to develop a sense of national pride and identity. This movement also called for education that aligned with India's culture and economy, reducing dependence on British institutions. By fostering local talent and values, the Swadeshi Education Movement sought to build a strong, independent India with a distinct cultural and educational fabric.
