Indian National Congress (Requisitionists)

The Indian National Congress (Requisitionists) was a faction within the Indian National Congress party during the late 1940s and early 1950s. This group emerged as a response to the leadership of the Congress, advocating for a more radical approach to achieving social and economic reforms in post-independence India. They pushed for a stronger emphasis on social justice, land reforms, and economic planning to address the needs of the marginalized. The Requisitionists eventually influenced the broader political discourse within India as the country grappled with establishing its identity and priorities after gaining independence from British rule.
