In the history of the Indian liberation fight, the years 1919-1947 are particularly significant. It was the third and final stage of India's independence movement. During this time, a great figure joined the Indian political scene with various weapons based on truth and non-violence, including as Satyagraha, Non-Cooperation, and Civil Disobedience, and quickly became the pioneer of the National Movement. Gandhiji developed the National Movement into a mass movement during this period, which is known as the 'Gandhian Era.'
Gandhiji revolutionised the people's movement by introducing a new method of struggle based on the principles of Satyagraha and Civil Disobedience. With Gandhiji's strong participation in the Indian National Movement, Indian nationalism underwent a metamorphosis. Gandhiji's popular appeal was undeniably genuine. His effective leadership qualities made a significant contribution to broadening the foundation of Indian nationalism. It's worth noting that the Congress's provincial committees were based on linguistic regions rather than the British India's artificial borders. These many methods played an important role in spreading nationalism to far-flung parts of the country.
As a result, social groups who were previously unaffected by nationalism became integral to it. The National Movement attracted tens of thousands of peasants, labourers, and artisans. Similarly, the general public played an important role in the Civil Disobedience Movement. In Delhi, 1600 women demonstrated outside a booze store. Similarly, the Quit India Movement grew into a true mass movement, with hundreds of thousands of ordinary Indians taking part.
As a result, some well-known industrialists, such as GD Birla, began to openly support the national movement, while others began to do so subtly.
As a result, Gandhiji's supporters and admirers comprised both peasants and wealthy businesspeople. The National Movement became a Mass Movement under Gandhiji's leadership.
Aside from regular Indians, the Indian National Congress gained backing from wealthy businesspeople and manufacturers. They soon realised that the advantages enjoyed by their British competitors would be extended to them in a free India.
