What was the fundamental change introduced by the Extremist leaders in Indian nationalism?
Articulation of 'Swaraj' with radical methods
The Extremist leaders such as Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Bipin Chandra Pal and Lala Lajpat Rai marked a decisive shift away from the Moderate approach in the Indian national movement.
Unlike the Moderates, who relied on petitions, prayers and gradual constitutional reforms, the Extremists openly demanded 'Swaraj' or self-rule as their goal.
They advocated more radical and assertive methods such as boycott, swadeshi and passive resistance to achieve this aim.
The fundamental change they introduced was therefore the articulation of 'Swaraj' along with radical methods of struggle.
