Question

Identify the peasant movement which took place in Bengal?

• A. Provincial Kisan Sabha Movement
• B. Tebhaga Movement
• C. Bengal Movement
• D. Kisan Tebhaga Movement

Answer 1

The correct option is B Tebhaga Movement

Agitation was started in Bengal by small and poor peasants who took the land of the bigger landowners to cultivate. They demanded that their share of harvest should be increased to two portions out of three, instead of half or even less. It was eventually given to them. This movement, called the Tebhaga Movement, was led by the Provincial Kisan Sabha.
