Explain briefly the Praja Mandal movement. |
|
Answer» The movements in the British India influenced nationalist awakening in Rajasthan. The farmer class movement began, and due to many oppressive policies, the provincial people were unhappy. Many illogical restrictions made the life of people troublesome, and for the solution of these things, political consciousness arose in provinces and Praja Mandal was formed. In this manner in Jodhpur, Jhalawad, Jaipur, Alwar, Bharatpur, Dholpur and other states the Praja Mandal movement continued to work. In Jodhpur Jai Narayan Vyas, in Bikaner Kanhaiya Lal Dund, in Mewar, Manikya Lal Verma, in Kota Nainu Ram Sharma, in Bundi Pathik ji, Ram Narayan Choudhary, Mange Lal Bhave, Tansukh lal Mittal, in Jaipur Arjun Lal Sethi, J. L. Bajaj, Hira lal Shastri and Pt. Hari Narayan Sharma in Alwar led the Praja Mandal movement. In a similar manner, Shri Ganesh Jagannath Das Adhikari in Bharatpur and Swami Shradhanand in Dholpur led the Praja Mandal Movement. |
