What to Focus On

  • The First World War lasted from 1914 to 1918.
  • The war was fought between the Allied Powers and the Central Powers.
  • India was involved to protect British interests.

  • Nationalist feelings grew stronger during the war.
  • Some leaders opposed British war policy openly.
  • Some others hoped for political reform after the war.

  • Lucknow Congress was the first united Congress since 1908.
  • Tilak helped unite the Congress factions and the Muslim League.
  • The Lucknow Pact was an agreement between Congress and Muslim League.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The Lucknow Pact was the same as the Congress split at Surat, or it happened to end the split of 1907.

Annie Besant was a British or American leader, not an Irish lady settled in India.

Tilak and Annie Besant ran the same Home Rule League from one headquarters.
