[amp_mcq option1=”1885″ option2=”1886″ option3=”1887″ option4=”1888″ correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n
The correct answer is (a) 1885.<\/p>\n
The Indian National Congress (INC) was founded on December 28, 1885, in Bombay, British India (now Mumbai, India). It was founded by Allan Octavian Hume, a retired British civil servant, who wanted to create a forum for educated Indians to discuss their grievances and work towards self-government. The INC’s first president was Womesh Chandra Bonnerjee.<\/p>\n
The INC initially focused on social reform and education, but it soon became involved in the independence movement. In 1906, the INC adopted the goal of swaraj, or self-rule. The INC played a leading role in the Indian independence movement, and its leaders, including Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru, were instrumental in the country’s eventual independence in 1947.<\/p>\n
The INC has continued to be a major political party in India since independence. It has been in power at the national level for several periods, most recently from 2004 to 2014. The INC is a member of the Socialist International.<\/p>\n
The other options are incorrect because the INC was not founded in those years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
