Achievement of Indian National Congress during the period from 1885-1905 is. in the first phase :

The Delhi Durbar held in 1877 to proclaim Queen Victoria as the Empress of India witnessed a grand gathering of hundreds of Indian princes that gave an idea to organize a similar gathering of Indian patriots.

The National conference of 1883 at Calcutta was another occasion to develop the same idea among the elite class.

The Hindu wrote that “Time had come when the people of India should assert their rights with all the strength of a national movement. Again in December 1884 the Indian leaders from several parts of the country met to bid farewell to Lord Rippon.” The idea of a common gathering of patriots of India thus was generated
While the idea of an organisation of national character was gaining momentum it was an English man Allan Octavian Hume who came forward to give the idea of many Indians a practical shape. It was the irony of history that the Indian congress which was the brain child of an English man ultimately decided the destiny of that British rule in India.

It was he who was largely responsible for moving the Indian congress viable and continuing the organisation for which he has been regarded as the father of the Indian National Congress. The establishment of congress as of other bodies in the eighties represented the culmination of an awareness among educated youths to work together for political ends. It also reflected their growing strength and sense of national unity and identity.

Octavian Hume was the son of Joseph Hume who was one of the most influential radical politicians of England. Allan Octavian himself was the member of the ICS and had shown considerable sympathy for the Indians. He came in contact with many Indians when he was a district officer during the period of mutiny. He gradually rose in the official hierarchy and became the secretary to the government of India in the department of Agriculture.

He was completely vexed with the British attitude towards Indians and resigned on a pension and remained in India. For this his fellow Britons seem to have regarded him with suspicion. He was even called by Dufferin as unscrupulous and careless of the truth. Indians acclaimed him as pure and unblemished character, having a commanding personality sagacious in nature with strong determination.

He had practical approach to problems like a true statesman. He was very sorry to see how the Indian’s discontent against British day by day increased. To him the gap between the ruler and the ruled was getting wider very quickly.
