Explanation:

The modest dreams of the Russian liberals were the closest to the realization in 1881, when Alexander II, frightened by the terror of “Narodnaya Volya,” agreed to implement the project of the then Minister of the Interior M.T. Loris-Melikov. He proposed to involve representatives from zemstvos and city councils in the “preparatory commissions” that were supposed to draft the bills, and in the State Council, where these bills were to be discussed before being approved by the tsar. For all its limitations, the Loris-Melikov project, to some extent, met the aspirations of the liberal public. However, Alexander II was killed by terrorists, and his son and successor Alexander III, immediately after coming to power in April 1881, issued a manifesto in which he declared that he would strengthen the autocratic power in every way and protect it “from any creeps on it.” Then a long retrograde steps period came.

the congress was known as inneficient and scandalous.
