Detailed Solution

History and fiction, folklore and songs, popular imprints, and symbols all played a part in the making of nationalism in India.
History, folklore, fiction and symbols were collective senses of belonging that significantly contributed to nationalism. For example, the national flag symbolises defiance, which inspires people. In addition, the National song imparts strength and a feeling of unity to people; the picture of Bharat Mata signifies motherland, divinity and spirituality. The nationalist leaders utilised these symbols and icons to unite the people for the common cause of the country's independence. Hence, the books written by the leaders and revolutionaries gave an accurate and uncorrupted picture of India. All these together played an essential role in inspiring a sense of nationalism among the people.
