Swadeshi Movement was a clear Economic movement to decontrol the British, when they were ruling India, from the Economic power they wielded over the country before Independence. Swadeshi = Self Sufficiency.

Popular Swadeshi Stores is an Old Garment showroom at Triplicane connected to that movement Pre_independence.

(Need Sathya / TP Anand, to throw some more light about the background of this store.)
