Answer
Exam answer
(b) Swadeshi and Boycott.
Explanation
The Assertive Nationalists relied on SWADEHI (using Indian-made goods) and BOYCOTT (refusing foreign goods and institutions), together with national education and passive resistance — methods of self-reliance and direct action. Options (a), (c) and (d) all describe the EARLY Nationalists: prayers, petitions and deputations to Britain, the approach mocked as "political mendicancy". Three of the four options belong to the other group, which makes this an easy mark once the distinction is fixed.
