Question

Q. Floud Commission was related to:

• A. Telangana Movement
• B. Faraizi Movement
• C. Tebhaga Movement
• D. Wahabi Movement

Answer 1

The correct option is C Tebhaga Movement

Explanation:

September 1946, the Bengal Provincial Kisan Sabha gave a call to implement, through mass struggle, the Floud Commission recommendations of Tebhaga—two-thirds’ share—to the Bargardars, the share-croppers also known as bagchasi or adhyar, instead of the one-half share.

• The Bargardars worked on lands rented from the Jotedars. The communist cadres, including many urban student militias, went to the countryside to organise the Bargardars.
• The central slogan was “nij khamare dhan tolo”—i.e., sharecroppers taking the paddy to their own threshing floor.
