2. How were the philosophies and major tenants of the INC responses to Western Inter-
vention in India?
Non-violence/Civil Disobedience “Boycotting” British Goods
Rejecting British Culture and Education
![Page 10: Amber Bang Byeonghun Lee Heiwon Shin](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56816735550346895ddbe26a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Non Violence/Civil Disobedience Response because…
• Violent revolts were useless in face of strong British military- Reflection on failure of Sepoy Rebellion (1857)
• Criticize hypocrisy of British government • Kept true to Indian values – Hindu + Muslim
respect for peace
For example, • British rule • Salt March
![Page 11: Amber Bang Byeonghun Lee Heiwon Shin](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56816735550346895ddbe26a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
“Boycotting” British Goods Response because…
• Indians needed to promote and use their own products more• Indians rejected to support the British gevernment finacially
For example,• Ganhdi taught the Indians to resist with “noncooperation”• Indians refused to pay taxes to the British government • Indians were encouraged to make their own handmade cloth• When tax was put on salt by the British, Gandhi led his followers on
a march of 240 miles to go collect salt from the sea.

Rejecting British Culture and Educa-tion
Response because...• Having strong patriotic minds • Having faith(Hindu) and pride in their own
culture For example,
• Banning the use of English • Developing India’s regional languages and
literatures• Rejecting British School

How was the INC an ex-pression of Indian nation-
alism?

The Indian National Congress expressed the idea
of Indians during the British Colonial Pe-riod.
In other words, • Identified what it means to be Indian• Attempted to improve in India’s interest• Brought together the people of the India to act
“of the people, for the people, and by the people”

In attempt to improve in India’s in-terests

characteristicsgain independence

Discussion points Effectiveness of INC’s approach to in-
dependence? Religious influence on Indian national-
ism – Positive? Negative? Indian Nationalism POV
• Was Indian nationalism economically bene-ficial for the actual people of India? Were they better off with English support?- What’s more important? Strong sense of identity
+ self-rule or economic prosperity for all citizens
