    2. 1916, Congress agreed to concessions with Muslim League – right to separate
      electorates, one third of seats in Councils. Both wanted more seats in Councils, protection
      of Minorities, provinces to have autonomy, proposals to be binding on British. First time
      joint agreement, Congress accepted some form of partition needed, Home Rule seemed a
      possibility and Muslim League realised they needed to work with Congress. (CIE MARKING SCHEME)

  5. In 1916, the Congress agreed to concessions with Muslim League. So the Lucknow Pact was drawn up in which Congress agreed for separate Muslim electorates,one-third of council seats for Muslims, and a need for majority approval for acts affecting a community.
    The Pact also included common demands to the British such as more seats in Councils, proposals to be binding, protection of minorities, and provincial autonomy. This was the first joint agreement between the two parties, which made the Congress accept that some form of partition was needed for a self-governing India.

  9. It was an agreement between the Muslim league and INC which was in 1916. The Muslim league was led by Jinnah and INC was led by Bal Gangadhar Tilak. The main aim of this pact was to present united front to the British government. The pact addressed the issue separate electorate for Muslims which was a key demand for Muslim league and ensured that Muslim representation in the central and provincial legislatures should be based on their population.
