What methods did the Early Nationalists adopt, and why were they criticised?
Original Khojo Papers practice question — not from a past board paper.
Answer
They used constitutional and peaceful methods: petitions, memoranda, resolutions, speeches and delegations to Britain, a method sometimes described as prayer, petition and protest. They were criticised by the younger nationalists as too slow, too trusting of British good faith and too far removed from the mass of the people.

Their achievement was nevertheless real: they exposed the economic effects of British rule and built the framework of the national movement.
