@INCIndia: #The_Bakers_Dozen_Names

Supporters of #IndianNationalCongress claim, their party gave India the freedom at midnight. They know not the fact that the INC underwent several episodes of fission throughout the post Independence period.

Original Congress had "Tricolor with Charkha" as the flag from 1931 to 1947. After 1947, it was given up as Congress became a political party from a freedom movement.

Nehru's Congress had "Two bullocks with a plough" as the symbol from 1952.

The 1971 fission was the biggest and the faction lead by Indira Gandhi acquired the "cow with suckling calf" symbol. The "Hand" became Congress symbol only from 1977.
