ABOUT US

We are siblings and have started Mnemonics Daddy


with a vision of making learning fun, exciting, and
joyful through Mnemonics. Our mission is to make
mnemonics for every discipline with a primary focus
on UPSC and other competitive examinations.

In line with Mahatma Gandhiji's vision of


Sarvodaya, we intend to keep much of this project
as a free resource available to all aspirants. The
updates on this are available on the Mnemonics
Daddy Telegram channel. Updated versions of all
materials are available on Amazon’s Kindle.

Foreword

This is not a study material for History.


This is merely a free supplementary
resource that helps you to remember
things easily. We have taken Spectrum
by Rajiv Ahir (widely read by the
aspirants) as the frame of reference for
creating a skeletal structure for Modern
History. This also includes a few extra
mnemonics that are important for the
exam and related to the chapter.
Therefore, some mnemonics may not be
present in the respective chapter of the
spectrum.

@chaitanya.ips

@mnemonicsdaddy
Dear Aspirant

We would like to improve this work


further. We need your suggestions for
enhancing the mnemonics. If you feel
any Mnemonic can be improved
further or want to make a mnemonic
suggestion or want to suggest
anything to maximize the utility of this
project to the aspirants, I request you
to message me personally on either
Instagram, Twitter, or LinkedIn handles.
I would love to hear from you.

Arguments of Swarajists - NAP

(Swarajists say lets take a NAP post NCM - Non-


Cooperation Movement) [V.Imp for Mains]

N NCM Continuation - Entering councils would not


negate NCM, rather it would be like carrying on the
movement through other means - Opening a new front

A
Arena of Political Struggle - Councils could be used as
an arena of Political Struggle (deter British measures
from within); there was no intention to use the councils
as organs for the gradual transformation of colonial rule

P Political Vacuum - Council work could enthuse the


masses and keep up their morale

Manifest

1923
Swarajist Manifesto for Elections took a
strong Anti-Imperialist line (to win the
elections one has to say the British have
been exploiting us and we need our own
self-government - similar is being said
even in the present-day elections)

@mnemonicsdaddy @chaitanya.ips @iravikiranreddy


Swarajist

Manifest
ctober

1923

[Imp for Prelims & Mains]

It has 3 main things - Win + Ask of Self-Govt


+ If not Obstruct & create Deadlocks

1. Win the elections by saying - the British


guiding motive lies in their self-interest + Real
objective is to continue the exploitation of
India’s unlimited resources

2. After winning - Ask for the Nationalist


Demand for Self-Government in councils

2. If they don’t accept - Adopt a policy of


obstruction within councils to make
Governance impossible by creating Deadlocks

Bel-gaum/Bel-goan Session of
INC - Only time Gandhi Presided

[V.Imp for Prelims]

Belgaum me gaanv/goan (= Village in Hindi) hai.


So associate “village” with Gandhi
Therefore, Gandhi Presided over the Belgaum session
But Belgaum is a city

Faizpur session of INC was


the first session held in a village

The 50th Session of INC was held in Dec 1936 at Faizpur,


a village in Jalgaon District of Bombay Presidency
(Maharashtra). Therefore, the Faizpur session of INC was
the first session held in a village.

Achievements of Swarajists

Powerful Speeches on SIC - Self-Government,


Industrialization, and Civil Liberties

Vithalbhai Patel - Elected as speaker


of Central Legislative Assembly in 1925

Exposed hollowness of the


Montford Scheme

Out-voted the government several times - BAP


even on matters relating to Budgetary Grants + Passed
Adjournment Motions + Defeat of Public Safety Bill in 1928

when the national movement was recouping its strength

Drawbacks of Swarajists - Hindu + Muslim +

NAG Constructive work by
No-Changers

[V.Imp for Mains]

N National Schools & Colleges - Where students were


trained in a non-colonial ideological framework

A
Ashrams sprang up & Popularised the use of Khadi &
Charkha - Youth worked for the upliftment of Tribals
and Lower castes esp. in the KHEDA & BARDOLI areas
of Gujarat

G Grassroot work - HUB - Hindu Muslim Unity +


Untouchability eradication + Boycott of foreign cloth
and liquor

Constructive work for No-Changers served as the


backbone of Civil Disobedience as active organisers

@mnemonicsdaddy @chaitanya.ips @iravikiranreddy


NAG - Critique of Constructive work
by No-Changers

[V.Imp for Mains]

N National Schools & Colleges - Benefited the Urban


Upper middle classes and the Rich Peasants only

A
Ashrams sprang up & spread the use of Khadi &
Charkha -the use of Khadi & Charkha - But the
popularisation of Khadi was an uphill task since it
was costlier than the imported cloth

G Grassroot work - No emphasis was laid on the


economic grievances of the landless & agricultural
labourers

Although the Swarajists and the No-Changers worked in their separate ways,
they kept on the best of terms with one another and were able to unite whenever
the time was ripe for a new political struggle.

“Peasants have to

Bhagat was fully and consciously secular. He
also saw the importance of freeing people
from the mental bondage of religion and
superstition

“to be a revolutionary,
one required immense
moral strength, but one
also required criticism
and independent
thinking”.

Bhagat Singh

@mnemonicsdaddy @chaitanya.ips @iravikiranreddy


“The struggle in India will continue, so
long as a handful of exploiters continue
