Indian National Congress. Founded in 1885, the Congress led India to independence from Great Britain, and powerfully influenced other anti-colonial nationalist movements in the British Empire. It was founded in Bombay in late December 1885, during the British Raj in India. Its principal founders were, Allan Octavian Hume (a former administrator of Etawah district, North-Western Provinces, and pioneering ornithologist of India), as well as William Wedderburn, Pherozeshah Mehta, Dadabhai Naoroji, Dinshaw Wacha, and others. The Indian National Congress (Organisation) or Congress (O) was a political party in India formed when the Congress party split following the expulsion of Indira Gandhi.
