However, the first authoritative exposition of the Extremist Ideology was written by Arubindo Ghose or Sri Arubindo when he started writing series of articles under the title ""New lamps for old"" in late 1890s in a newspaper of Bombay, while he was engaged with Maharaja of Baroda. In this series, Sri Arubindo expressed the ideas that the Congress is wasting Indian time and energy by seeking trivial reforms."

May 1st, 2011 | Comment
Right from 1885, Congress had started raising voice against the Foreign Policy of the British. It was in 1892, when they for the first time, objected the military activity of the British along the natural borders of India. The voice was raised against the use of India as a military base against the neighbors of India such as Tibet, Burma, Afghanistan and Persia. In 1921, at a meeting (not session) at Delhi, the Congress took a resolution on the foreign policy of India and iterated India's desire to establish good friendly relations with other states. This is considered to be the first important resolution related to the Foreign Policy. But it was the 1927 Madras session, where the INC passed a resolution against the use of the Indian Troops in China, Mesopotamia and Persia. In 1928, at the Calcutta Session, AICC was directed to open a Foreign department so that we start making relations with the countries.
