These investments facilitate the easy export of raw material and came at a high-interest rate. Hence, statement 1 is NOT correct.
- They saw a solution to poverty in India in the development of domestic industries. So they promote the idea of Swadeshi. Hence, statement 2 is correct.
- They supported the Indian capitalist class but were critical of the British capitalist class. Hence, statement 3 is NOT correct.
- They demanded the abolition of the salt tax since starting. Hence, statement 4 is correct.
