The [[Indian National Congress]] was formed in 1885. In 1907, it [[Surat Split|split]] into two factions, the Radicals — the '''Garam Dal''' (hot faction) — led by [[Bal Gangadhar Tilak]] and the Moderates — the '''Naram Dal''' (soft faction) — led by [[Gopal Krishna Gokhale]]. They were termed so because of their attitude towards the British rule.<ref name="Jackson2011">{{cite book|author=Roy Jackson|title=Mawlana Mawdudi and Political Islam: Authority and the Islamic State|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ADv5oEXXjXIC&pg=PA58|year=2011|publisher=Taylor & Francis|isbn=978-0-415-47411-5|page=58}}</ref> The Garam Dal is considered a triumvirate consisting of [[Lala Lajpat Rai]] and [[Bipinchandra Pal|Bipin Chandra Pal]], apart from Tilak. According to Bhatt and Bhargava, the differences between the two factions of the Congress paralyzed it, due to which "the agitation for independence ran out of steam and it remained so till the end of the First World War". The Naram Dal helped the British in the war effort, whereas the Garam Dal led by Tilak and [[Annie Besant]] started the [[Indian Home Rule movement|Home Rule agitation]] in 1917. [[Asghar Ali Engineer]] writes that the Garam Dal separated itself from the Congress, after the differences that came to fore during the Congress session of Surat in 1907. Until 1915, [[Motilal Nehru]] was a member of the Naram Dal. However. under persuasion of his son [[Jawaharlal Nehru]], he joined the Garam Dal.<ref name="Chaturvedi">{{cite book|author=B. K.
