Modi Calls for Revival of Swadeshi Movement
Prime Minister Modi is encouraging people in India to buy products made in India, like they did during India's fight for independence.
This idea is called Swadeshi.
Back then, people boycotted British goods and focused on making their own.
Modi wants Indians today to do something similar, supporting local businesses and taking pride in Indian-made products to boost the Indian economy and become more self-reliant.

The Swadeshi movement encouraged using Indian-made goods and boycotting British products.
