Centrist-liberal political party in India

The Indian National Congress (INC), also known as the Congress Party, or simply the Congress, is a big tent political party in India, one of the two major Indian political parties alongside the Bharatiya Janata Party. It is the oldest existing political party in India. Founded on 28 December 1885, it was the first modern nationalist movement to emerge in the British Empire in Asia and Africa. From the late 19th century, and especially after 1920, under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, the Congress became the principal leader of the Indian independence movement. The Congress was one of the parties who led India to independence from the United Kingdom, and significantly influenced other anti-colonial nationalist movements in the British Empire.
