These were important steps in the direction of founding an all India political organisation. Its second Conference was held in Calcutta on 25 December, 1885. In December 1883, 200 representatives attended the National Conference of the Indian Association held in Calcutta. The Mahajan Sabha was established in Madras on 16 May, 1884. In this association the majority consisted of the English educated middle class Indians. Its prominent leaders were Anand Mohan Bose and Surendranath Banerjee. On 26 July 1876, another organisation called the Indian Association was established in Bengal. In 1866, he set up the East India Association in London.
The credit for establishing such an association abroad goes to Dadabhai Naoroji. Chief amongst them were the Land Holders Society (1837), British India Society (1843) and British Indian Association (1851) in Bengal, Native Association (1852) in Madras and Bombay Association (1852) in Bombay.
Although the All India National Congress was established in 1885, prior to it several provincial and regional political organisations had already become functional in the political field.
