Answer

The British Government viewed the Congress leaders as a friendly tribe in the beginning. The Government wanted to use the Congress as a 'safety valve' to ease out the discontent among the Indian people. The British wanted to understand the real feelings and sentiments of the people with the help of the Congress and introduce necessary reforms in the administration.
