The Independence Day Pledge, 26 January 1930
“We believe that it is the inalienable right of the Indian people, as
of any other people, to have freedom and to enjoy the fruits of
their toil and have the necessities of life, so that they may have
full opportunities of growth. We believe also that if any
government deprives a people of these rights and oppresses
them, the people have a further right to alter it or to abolish it.
The British Government in India has not only deprived the India
people of their freedom but has based itself on the exploitation of
the masses, and has ruined India economically, politically,
culturally, and spiritually. We believe, therefore, that India must
sever the British connection and attain Purna Swaraj or Complete
Independence.
a Why must India sever the British connection?
