    1. Peasants in rural areas protested against high rents and unfair taxes. Tribal people demanded the right to use forest lands freely.
    2. Merchants supported the boycott of foreign goods to promote Indian products. Workers in factories went on strikes for better wages and working conditions.
    3. Students and teachers left government schools and colleges to support Swaraj.

    Thus, all participated, but with different aims and expectations from the movement.
