Question

The conflict between the two sections of the Congress came to surface in its Session in $1906$ at Calcutta. In this context explains the following:
The Split in the Congress in $1907$.

Answer 1

Many of the moderate nationalists did not keep pace with events. They were not able to see that their outlook and methods, which had served a real purpose in the past, were no longer adequate. They had failed to advance to the new stage of the national movement. The militant nationalists, on the other hand, were not willing to be held back. The split between the two came at the Surat session of the National Congress in December 1907; The moderate leaders, having captured the machinery of the Congress excluded the militant elements from it. But, in the long run, the split did not prove useful to either party.
