Detailed Solution

Swaraj for plantation workers in Assam means freedom to move freely outside the plantation. It also includes to roam inside or outside of confined space and to live without restrictions. Britishers suppressed them to leave their village and live where Britishers allowed in nearby tea plantation areas so that they would look after the plants. By various laws, Britishers exploited planters. These all sufferings were because of Britishers. But when they heard about Swaraj and Gandhi, they thought the time is coming when all difficulties and suffering will end for planters. Swaraj means the right of freedom to move freely everywhere in which planters were enclosed.
