Answers
Answer:
The Indian National Congress (abbr. INC), colloquially the Congress Party but often simply Congress, is a political party in India with widespread roots.[23] Founded in 1885, it was the first modern nationalist movement to emerge in the British Empire in Asia and Africa.[a][24] From the late 19th century, and especially after 1920, under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, Congress became the principal leader of the Indian independence movement.[25] Congress led India to independence from the United Kingdom,[d] and powerfully influenced other anti-colonial nationalist movements in the British Empire.[e][24] Due to its enduring history, the Congress is often called the "grand old party".
Answer:
The Indian National Congress founded in 1885 was the institutionalized form of emergent Indian nationalism.
It was the first organized expression of Indian nationalism on an all-India scale.
The birth of the Indian National Congress was not a sudden event or a historical accident but the result of a gradual effort of a number of educated Indians of Bengal and other regions who were very much dissatisfied and disgusted by the exploitative nature of the alien British rule.In India, we notice a process of the beginning of political awakening since 1860, which took a major leap forward in 1870-1880 and finally led to the founding of the Indian National Congress in December 1885. R.C. Majumdar aptly observes, “The national conference held in Calcutta in 1883 forestalled it in all essential aspects".
