The Karachi session of the Indian National Congress was held in March 1931 and was presided over by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. The session was important as it was the first time that the Congress had adopted a comprehensive resolution on Fundamental Rights and Economic Program.

The resolution was drafted by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, who was one of the most prominent leaders of the Indian National Congress at that time. The resolution called for the protection of fundamental rights, such as the right to freedom of speech, assembly, and association. It also called for the abolition of untouchability, the protection of minorities, and the establishment of a just and equitable social order.

In addition to the protection of fundamental rights, the resolution also included an economic program that called for the establishment of a socialist economic system in India. The program called for the nationalization of key industries, the establishment of a planned economy, and the protection of the interests of workers and peasants.

Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru was a leading figure in the Indian National Congress and was one of the key architects of India`s independence. He played a pivotal role in drafting the resolution on Fundamental Rights and Economic Program at the Karachi session of the Congress in 1931, which laid the foundation for India`s future economic and social policies.
