Option 4 : 1, 2, 3 and 4

The correct answer is 1, 2, 3 and 4.

The partition of Bengal was commenced in July 1905 and put into effect on October 16.
During the 1900s, there was an ongoing awakening in society and the rise of nationalism which was centred in Bengal.
To weaken the agitation, the Government decided to partition Bengal in 1903.
- However, the official reason for the partition of Bengal was that with 78 million people, Bengal was too big to administer.

The Swadeshi movement finds its roots in the Partition of Bengal in 1905.
It was an anti-partition movement by moderate leaders like Surendra Nath Banerjee and Krishna Kumar Mitra.
The movement was launched on August 7, 1907, after a mass demonstration at the town hall, Calcutta.
On the day of Raksha Bandhan, Hindus and Muslims tied rakhis on the wrists of each other as a symbol of fraternity.
After the partition of Bengal on October 16, 1905, a hartal was observed in Calcutta and it was declared a day of national mourning.
The demonstrations were held in the whole of Bengal and people were asked to use Swadeshi product and boycott British products.
Later along with a boycott of British products the people started boycotting the British services like postal service, courts, schools and colleges etc.
But by the beginning of 1908, the movement had faded out due to a lack of leadership and suppression by the British government.
The frustration in the youth of Bengal caused by the suppression of this movement led them towards revolutionary nationalism instead of passive boycott only.
Important points related to Swadeshi Movement -
- The movement mainly introduced the boycott of foreign goods and the use of public meeting and procession for mass mobilization.
  - It was marked by the mass mobilization through the organization of "Samitis". Hence statement 1 is correct.
  - Swadeshi Bandhab Samiti founded by the Ashwini Kumar Dutta.
  - It was marked by mass mobilization through labour strikes. Hence statement 2 is correct.
- It advocated a constructive programme of self-help or "Atma shakti". Hence statement 3 is correct.
  - It included various social measures against caste oppression, the dowry system, early marriages etc.
- National Schools and colleges were established. Hence statement 4 is correct.
  - Bengal National College was set up in the line of Tagore's Shanti Niketan.
  - Many schools established in various types of the country.
  - The vernacular medium was also employed to spread education.
