*Workers too had a notion for swaraj. *For plantation workers, it meant retaining a link with their family and heading back home instead of being confined to a limited area. *Under the inland emigration act, they were not permitted to leave the plantation without the owner's permission. *When they heard of the Non-Cooperation Movement, thousands of workers defied the authorities, left the plantations and headed home *They believed that Gandhiji was on his way to the plantations to help them. *They, however, never reached their destination. Stranded on the way by a railway and steamer strike, they were caught by the police and brutally beaten up.
