Answer:

During Woomesh Chandra Banerjee's presidency, the first Indian National Congress was held in $1885$.

Explanation:

• The Indian National Congress was established on December 28, 1885, in Bombay's Gokuldas Tejpal Sanskrit College. In attendance were 72 delegates. Womesh Chunder Bonnerjee of Calcutta was chosen as the country's first president, while Hume was appointed as the organization's general secretary.
• Varanasi is home to Banaras Hindu College. As the Congress party was created in Bombay, it has nothing to do with the formation of the Congress party.
• It also has nothing to do with the creation of the Indian National Congress because the Calcutta Sanskrit Vidyapeeth is located in Kolkata.
• The Indian National Congress was established in Bombay, and Kashi VidyaPeeth is also located in Varanasi. Its initial gathering also took place in Bombay.
