This session was notably marked by the split between the moderates and the extremists within the Congress. Mainly there was an ideological difference between the two groups. The main objectives placed by the extremist were: 1. Demand for the resolution of Swaraj. 2. Lala Lajpat Rai to be made the President of INC.
