The Indian National Congress, fueled by growing nationalist sentiments, boldly declared India's independence from British rule on December 19, 1929. Led by prominent figures like Jawaharlal Nehru and Mahatma Gandhi, this declaration marked a pivotal moment in India's struggle for freedom. The Purna Swaraj, or "complete independence," resolution was adopted, signaling India's determined push for self-governance. This historic event ignited a wave of protests, civil disobedience, and non-cooperation movements, ultimately shaping the course of India's struggle for independence.
