Tebhaga movement

The Tebhaga movement was a very important political movement that happened in India in 1946-1947. It was led by poor farmers who wanted more control over their land so they wouldn't get taken advantage of by landowners. The farmers wanted to be able to use more of their own land for their own families and not have to give so much of the crops they grew to the landowners. They wanted a law that said the landowners had to share more of their land with the farmers. The Tebhaga movement became very popular and spread across India, and even though it was a peaceful protest, the government was scared of it and used police and soldiers to stop the movement and arrest the farmers. In the end, the Tebhaga movement was not successful in getting the law it wanted, but it showed that the people of India had a strong voice and the courage to stand up and fight for what they believed in.
