Question
Discuss in brief about the organization, established by Gopal Krishna Gokhale to educate and to arouse national awakening among the people.
Solution
Gopal Krishna Gokhale was one of the greatest moderates among the early nationalists. He fought and struggled hard for national liberation. He was one of the founders of the Indian National Congress. He was always willing to co-operate with the British Government but the same time always eager that the British Government would introduce certain reforms in the Indian administration. He was always so eager that the British Government in all fairness and sense of justice absorbed more and more Indians in the administration by offering them jobs in Civil Services. He established the ‘Servants of Indian Society’ in 1905. It was his desire that educated Indians be trained so that they may serve their motherland as whole time workers.
