Background
The British had announced, in order to
satisfy the Indians, that they will be
considering a series of proposals that
would lead to at least half of the members
of the Executive Council being elected and
the Legislative Council having a majority of
elected members. Both the Congress and
the Muslim League supported these. Both
had realized that for further concessions
to be gained, greater cooperation was
required.[2]
Importance
The Lucknow Pact is seen as a beacon of
hope of Hindu-Muslim unity. It established
cordial relations between the Muslim
League and the Indian National Congress.
Before the pact, both parties were viewed
as rivals who opposed each other and
worked in their own interests. However, the
pact brought a change in that view.
