Boycott of foreign goods was the cornerstone of the Non Cooperation Movement of Gandhi. It was devised as a devastating tool of mass movement by Aurobindo Ghosh in 1905. The concept recurred in Indic ethos locally in several places long back. Read: https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU
In a few years in which he was active politically, Aurobindo Ghosh galvanized the freedom movement and left inspirational, logical writings that inspired an entire generation of revolutionaries after him. He was the pioneer of the freedom movement https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU

When Sri Aurobindo, Tilak, and others were fighting against British rule, it wasn't against Christianity or conversion but Savarkar and Golwalkar were able to create a mass antipathy against Islam. So much so that the Mandir issue is less for a home for Ram than hounding Muslims.

There's no threat to anyone living in a free country like India but whenever Hindu unity or pride is invoked it's invariably directed against Islam if not Muslims apart from mobilising votes or funds. The States of Pakistan as well as India being granted Sovereignty is the answer

53. In brief unlike Jawaharlal Nehru, Gandhi had passionately rejected the British project of Westernizing India.
54. But he had rejected the intellectual premises of much of Western civilization first.
71. The British systematized us as 'Hindus', let us worship our own gods, but in our own caste traditions and not Vedic traditions (they totally discouraged Sanskrit learning) and systematized and guaranteed the caste status.

78. The secular successors to the British took this to a higher degree and under Mandal commission perfected the 'class' grouping into Forward castes, Backward Castes, Other Backward Castes, Most Backward Castes and Scheduled Castes.

Granting Sovereignty to the States to manage their own affairs, including Foreign affairs, is the most appropriate solution to all problems the country is facing today. People must prepare for this futuristic measure by abdicating the grand narrative of an unusually large nation.
