Tag: partition of bengal and anti-partition movement

On the ground of controversy over Bengal partition, the radicals held agitations on swadeshi and prohibition of foreign goods. The moderates wanted to confine the protest only to Bengal. Moreover, they were not ready for the direct confrontation with the government. This led to the outburst of differences between the moderates and the radicals giving way to political confusions in the congress. In the 1907 congress session held at Surat, congress was split into two between moderates and radicals.

The Surat split in 1907, divided the Congress into 2 parts : the moderates and the radicals. After the split of the congress the government took severe punitive measures against the radicals. Several of the radicals were sent to jail, few were sent on exile. Tilak was given blackwater punishment and was sent to Mandalay jail (Burma). To make the radicals politically inactive, the British tried to win the favour of the moderates and Muslims by giving greater representation in the legislature. To carry out this intention Morley-Minto reformations were implemented in 1909. In this act they created a separate election constituency for the Muslims.
