Revolutionary Terrorism

Revolutionary Terrorism (1905-1915 AD)

The youth had participated actively in the Swadeshi movement in the hope and belief that Extremist methods of agitation such as boycott and passive resistance would take the national movement out of its elitist groove. The inability of the Extremist leadership to adequately analyse the weaknesses of the movement and their failure to suggest new ways out of the impasse further strengthened revolutionary ideas of assassination and dacoities. Brutal repression of the Swadeshi movement by the Government too added to the trend of revolutionary terrorism. The youth drew inspiration from Irish nationalists and the Russian Nihilists.

Ideology:

Assassinate unpopular officials, thus strike terror in hearts of rulers and arouse people to expel the British physically, based on individual heroic and not by mass-based countrywide struggle.
