Hii friend,


The INC was changed into a mass movement by Sueendranath Banerjee and Sir Henry Cotton during the division of Bengal.



The province of Bengal was too large for the British Governor to control. So on 16 October 1905, Lord Curzon (the Viceroy of India between 1899 and 1905) decided to divide Bengal into the largely Muslim East Bengal (now Bangladesh) and the predominantly Hindu West Bengal, based on the policy of ‘Divide and Rule’.
This caused widespread protest among the people and the day was declared as the ‘day of mourning’ in Kolkata. It also helped to spark off the Swadeshi Movement.


Due to widespread protest against the Partition of Bengal, the Eastern and Western parts of Bengal were reunited in 1911. However, differences between Hindus and Muslims had emerged and the two communities were divided.





hope this helps u ☺
