Four-point program of the Indian National Congress

The Indian national congress (INC) has put forward many objectives in the political administration, and it can be labelled in the four-point program. It includes:

• Social democracy, which is based on a socialist system of government achieved by democratic means.

• Indian nationalism, which is the instance of protective nationalism, inclusive of its entire people, regardless of their diverse ethnic and religious backgrounds.

• Gandhian socialism, which is based on the nationalist interpretation of the theories of Mahatma Gandhi. Gandhian socialism generally centres on Hind Swaraj or Indian Home Rule authored by Gandhi.

• Progressivism, which is the support for the improvement of society by reforms.
