Contribution of Muslim Women’s Participation in Non- Cooperation Movement and Khilafat Movement with Special Focus on Bengal
(University of North Bengal, 2022-12) Yasmin Sabina
In the aftermath of the First World War, indications of far-reaching changes in Indian politics became evident. Mahatma Gandhi’s rise in national politics certainly brought novelty to the nationalist movement. The Rowlatt Act, the Jallianwala Bagh massacre and the martial law in the Punjab intensified the anti-British imperialism of the common people. After that came the Khilafat problem. Gandhiji associated himself with the Khilafat movement at its full height. Gandhiji associated himself and the Indian National Congress with the Khilafat movement in a sincere attempt to strengthen Hindu-Muslim unity. The decision of boycott of British goods was taken based on this decision and the non-cooperation movement started and took the form of mass movement. This movement played a very important role in Bengal as well.

Jawaharlal Nehru and Subhas Chandra Bose: A comparative study of ideology and its application in the perspective of Freedom Movement
(University of North Bengal, 2016-03) Ghosh, Gour Chandra; Datta, Abhijit
Subhas Bose and Jawaharlal Nehru come down to the national movement almost at the same lime. Both of them espoused the ideology of the left and socialism. Jawaharlal did not stick to the political ideology of the left firmly. He was, in most cases, subdued by Gandhian pressure. Subhas Bose was respectful to Gandhi and his ideology. At times; he dared to challenge the course of Gandhi which was unprecedented. As a result of that Subhas adopted the most adventurous scheme of seeking the assistance of the Axis powers during the Second World War, whereas Jawaharlal remained faithful to Gandhian ideology as a means to the achievement of freedom.
