Identify the picture and write about his contribution to the freedom struggle:Do you feel the four-fold programme implemented by Indian National Congress needs to be implemented even today? Why? |

Answer» In the pre-independence period, Indian National Congress implemented the four-fold programme of Swaraj, Swadeshi, Boycott and National education. The programme needs to be implemented today but with slight changes. 1. Swaraj: Today we have political freedom but we lack good Governance. Common man, farmer, women and the backward classes still suffer. 2. Swadeshi: In the world of Globalisation, goods from other countries have entered Indian markets. It is necessary for the Indian industries to implement programme of Swadeshi to sustain. 3. Boycott: It is not possible to boycott foreign goods but we should insist on indigenous goods wherever possible. 4. National education: Schools in India impart education catering to different needs and ideologies but they fall short to create national pride and imparting character training. |
