Lahore Session

  • It was held on 19th December, 1929, under the presidentship of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru.
  • The Lahore Session of the Congress gave voice to the new militant spirit.
  • It passed a resolution declaring Poorna Swaraj or Complete Independence to be the Congress objective.
  • Lord Irwin was the Viceroy of India at that time.
  • On 31st December, 1929, the newly adopted tri-colour flag of freedom was hoisted on the banks of Ravi river .
  • On 26th January, 1930, it was fixed as the first Independence Day, which was to be so celebrated every year.
  • The "Indian Declaration of Independence" of 26 December 1929 stated that- "We believe that it is the inalienable right of the Indian people, as of any other people, to have freedom and to enjoy the fruits of their toil and have the necessities of life, so that they may have full opportunities of growth. We believe also that if any government deprives people of these rights and oppresses them; the people have a further right to alter it or to abolish it. The British Government in India has not only deprived the Indian people of their freedom but has based itself on the exploitation of the masses, and has ruined India economically, politically, culturally, and spiritually. We believe, therefore, that India must sever the British connection and attain Poorna Swaraj, or complete independence."
