On 28 December, 1885, with a dream of independent and developed India, a group of 72 senior persons (which included social reformers, journalists, doctors, advocates and leaders) met at Gokuldas Tezpal Sanskrit Mahavidyalaya (Mumbai). They had no idea that later the Father of Nation Mahatma Gandhi, Pt. Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Shri Lala Lajpat Rai, Shri Vipin Chandra Pal, Pt. Motilal Nehru, Shri Chitranjan Das, Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel, Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar, Shri Rajgopalachari, Dr. Rajendra Prasad, Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Smt Sarojini Naidu, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri, Smt. Indira Gandhi and Shri Rajiv Gandhi along with the people of this great country will take their dream forward and will use extra ordinary talent to make this country a developed one.

Congress party leaders had put very hard efforts for the Independence of this country by following the path of non violence and truth. In spite of harsh and cruel restrictions and attacks by British rulers, our leaders not only participated but successfully mobilized the countrymen via non co-operation, civil disobedience and various other historical movements.

Many leaders sacrifice for the Independence of Country and following to their methodology the First Prime Minister of Independent India Late Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru put a milestone of development of modern India and former prime minister Late Shri Lal Bahadur Shashtri given "Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan" statement to put new energy to the people of nation.

The first Prime Minister of independent India, Late Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru laid the foundation of India’s development. Later, Late Prime Minister Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri energized the nation with his slogan, "Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan".

First woman Prime Minister of India, Late Smt. Indira Gandhi introduced Green Revolution and abolished Privy Purses. She initiated nationalization of banks and established premiere engineering college Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Khadagpur, thereby ushering the nation on the path of technical education and empowering the youth to utilize their talent. Thereafter, an epitome of young India and the youngest Prime Minister Late Shri Rajiv Gandhi introduced Information & Communication Technology which ultimately led us into the era of modern India. Despite all odds, it was a great achievement for the young and impatient India. Today, all the development and progress (e.g. successful Chandrayan and Mangalyan mission) we see are the results of long sightedness of our leaders.

Under the leadership and guidance of All India Congress Committee’s President Shri Rahul Gandhi, Indian National Congress (INC) is committed for the welfare of people of India and continuously enhancing the golden heritage of the Congress party.

After independence, when re-organization of States took place, on 1st of November 1956, Madhya Pradesh was born and then Madhya Pradesh Congress. We are committed to the development and progress of people which in turn will lead to the development of State, the heart of India. Since the time of first State President, Late Shri Babu Govind Das to current State President, Shri Kamalnath, it had been (and will always be) our duty to serve the people with the help of our dedicated party workers. We assure the people of Madhya Pradesh that we are duty bound to highlight their issues in the assembly and act as a constructive opposition.
