The 1906 Calcutta Session of the Indian National Congress (INC) was a pivotal event in the Indian freedom struggle, marking the official shift from purely constitutional petitions to a more assertive nationalist agenda.

Key Highlights

President: The session was presided over by Dadabhai Naoroji, known as the “Grand Old Man of India“. He was chosen as a compromise candidate to bridge the growing rift between the Moderate and Extremist factions of the Congress.
Adoption of ‘Swaraj’: For the first time, the word Swaraj (Self-government) was used from the Congress platform as the ultimate goal of the Indian people. Naoroji declared that Swaraj on the lines of self-governing British colonies (like Canada or Australia) was the “only and chief remedy” for India’s problems.
The Four Resolutions: The session is most famous for passing four historic resolutions that defined the Swadeshi movement:
Swaraj: Demand for self-rule.
Swadeshi: Promotion of indigenous goods and industries.
Boycott: Refusal to use British goods as a political tool.
National Education: Establishment of an educational system under national control, free from colonial influence.
