Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Ishwar Chandra
Vidyasagar, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, and
Narayana Guru were prominent reformers who
endeavored to eliminate social injustices such as
sati, child marriage, and the caste system from
society. They advocated for the remarriage of
widows and the empowerment of women. They
believed that without these societal changes,
India would struggle to unify and resist British

The rise of nationalism led to the establishment of
the Indian National Congress (INC) in 1885,
initiated by A. O. Hume. The inaugural session of
the Congress took place in Bombay (now Mumbai),
with W. C. Bonnerjee serving as the President.

INDIAN NATIONAL CONGRESS (INC)
The Indian National Congress was
generally split into two factions –
the moderates and the hardliners.
Moderates preferred resolving
issues through discussions,
meetings, and persistent appeals.
They had faith in the British sense
of justice. Dadabhai Naoroji,
Surendranath Banerjee, and
Badruddin Tyabji were
proponents of the moderate
stance.
