Consider the following statements in respect of the Swadeshi Movement: 1. The Swadeshi Movement had its genesis in the anti-partition movement which was started to oppose the British decision to partition Bengal. 2. Aurobindo Ghosh was in favour of extending the movement to the rest of India and transforming it into a full-fledged political mass struggle beyond the Swadeshi and Boycott programme. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Statement 1 is correct: the Swadeshi Movement (1905) emerged directly from the anti-partition movement opposing Lord Curzon's decision to partition Bengal, formally announced in July 1905 and implemented on 16 October 1905. Statement 2 is also correct: Aurobindo Ghosh, as one of the leading extremists, advocated extending the movement across India and transforming it into a full-fledged mass political struggle going beyond mere swadeshi and boycott — encompassing passive resistance, national education, and ultimately the goal of complete independence (Swaraj). Hence both statements 1 and 2 are correct.
