The 19th Congress of N.U., which was held in Palembang the latter part of April, 1952, was a decisive one. It turned the page in the history of the development of the N. U. It represented a breaking point in the tradition of the movement which had been held for a quarter of a century. The N.U., until then purely a social, educational and religious Islamic movement, now became also a political party. It now became itself like a miniature structure of Islam which embraces every aspect of Life.
