- ... that the concept of composite nationalism, which holds that the Indian nation is composed of people of varying faiths and castes, led to a massive expansion of the Indian independence movement? SOURCE ONCE: "After his return to India in 1915 Gandhi extended the idea of a composite nationalism to include not only religious groups but castes and communities in general. ... One historian has argued that this allowed a massive expansion of the nationalist movement in India: 'Because Gandhi had a realistsic picture of India as a loose constellation of classes, communities and religious groups, he was able to activate the peoples of the subcontinent in a way no one had done before, or has since.'"

Article is new and long enough. No QPQ needed, but it's always helpful to start doing them. Sourcing checks out. Though I think I prefer ALT1 as the hook. It ties in a well-known figure and I think that will draw in readers more than the somewhat wordy main hook. Mccunicano☕️ 03:45, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
