Lucknow Pact

The Lucknow Pact was an agreement formed in 1916 between the Indian National Congress and the All India Muslim League. It was a crucial step toward uniting these two major political groups to present a common front for India’s independence movement. The pact aimed to protect Muslim interests while seeking greater self-governance from British rule. It called for constitutional reforms, including increased Indian representation and safeguards for minority communities. This cooperation marked a significant moment of collaboration between Hindu and Muslim leaders, fostering unity in the struggle for independence and shaping future political alliances in India.
