English term

grassroots movement

GBK English to Hindi Art/Literary Government / Politics
Definition from Wikipedia:
A grassroots movement (often referenced in the context of a political movement) is one driven by the constituents of a community. The term implies that the creation of the movement and the group supporting it is natural and spontaneous, highlighting the differences between this and a movement that is orchestrated by traditional power structures.
Example sentences:
It’s a common misconception that social movements occur spontaneously. Although usually requiring a spark to emerge into the public eye, movements result from decades of conscious and persistent grassroots movement building efforts. (exco)
Grassroots organizing can be harder than it sounds: a mix of social networking, savvy funding, and judicious decision-making can go a long way. (eHow)
Grassroots groups have increased their activity, newspapers and magazines have begun writing more about the issue, and a recent Wall Street Journal article showed that some high-end restaurants are rebelling (CommonDreams.org)

dsrivastava Nov 20, 2009:
मेरी राय में 'जन आन्दोलन' आधिक उचित है क्योंकि यह जनता का आन्दोलन है न की ऊपर से नेताओं या शासकों द्वारा लादा गया आन्दोलन|
