Caste, Class and Agrarian Movements in Bihar

Bengal reached its peak in the late 60s and early 70s and then it slided down to a point of almost no return. It may not be unreasonable to say that the most important organised movement of the labouring peasants with an element of spontaneity was the land grab movement launched during the United Front rule, notwithstanding the aberrations which ought to have been avoided. It was perhaps far more significant than any other peasant movement, including the great Tebhaga movement.
