The 1931 Congress Karachi Resolution founded a secular socialist vision for free India.

Evidence

At its Karachi Session in March 1931, the Congress passed a Resolution of Fundamental Rights for a free India. It was a valuable, enlightened document, and it included some of the rights Ambedkar had been campaigning for. It laid the foundation for a modern, secular and largely socialist state. The rights included the freedoms of speech, press, assembly and association, equality before law, universal adult franchise, free and compulsory primary education, a guaranteed living wage for every citizen and limited hours of work. It underlined the protection of women and peasants, and state ownership or control of key industries, mines and transport. Most important, it created a firewall between religion and the state. — Ambedkar, B R, Annihilation of Caste_ The Annotated…, 380
