India followed which strategy to reduce dependence on foreign goods after independence?
Import substitution
India followed the strategy of import substitution after independence, aiming to reduce dependence on foreign goods by boosting domestic production.
Free trade, export-led growth and dollarisation describe other economic strategies, not the one India adopted in this early post-independence period.
Hence, Import substitution is the correct answer.
