Detailed Solution

The plantation workers in Assam believed that Gandhi Raj was coming and everyone would be given land in their village. Plantation labourers were not permitted to leave the garden without permission, and such permission was rarely granted. In Assam, plantation workers described "swaraj"(freedom) as the ability to freely move in and out of the places in which they were restricted and the ability to extend or retain a relationship with the community from where they had come. When they learned of the Non-Cooperation movement, thousands of workers revolted, abandoned the plantation, and returned home. They anticipated that Gandhi Raj would arrive and everyone in their communities would be allocated land.
