"Proceedings of the Indian National Congress Vol-1 (1885-1889)" is the first of a series of 13 volumes which will document and present the journey of the Indian National Congress from 1885 to 1947.
"These volumes are not just a record of Congress speeches and resolutions, but they also capture the mental, emotional, and political life of late 19th and early 20th century India. They are probably the first authentic version of the Congress proceedings," says Hasan.
The copy of the book, published by Niyogi, was presented to Gandhi at her 10, Janpath residence.
Gandhi appreciated the initiative and efforts of Hasan in the compilation of the book, the publishers said in a statement. PTI
