The Indian National Congress was a movement started in 1885 by a Britain in India called A.O Hume, not be confused with the philosopher! This congress ranged from the moderate to the radical and after World War One was led by the likes of Gandhi and Nehru. The reason you might be confusing it with being called the 'hindu national congress' is simply because it was biased towards Hindus. Gandhi would not let Muslims join the congress.
In contrast, the Muslim radical Jinnah set up the Muslim League to gain fair representation for the minority Muslims. This eventually led to the creation of Pakistan.
