Differentiate champaran movement and feudalism
Answers
Some of the most important peasant movements in India are as follows: 1. Champaran Satyagraha (1917) 2. Kheda Peasant Struggle 3. The Bardoli Movement in Gujarat 4. Moplah Rebellion in Malabar 5. Peasant Revolt in Telangana 6. Tebhaga Movement in Bengal.
The history of agrarian unrest can be traced back to the first quarter of 1920s. The rural sociologists have used various terms for peasant unrest. For some the unrest is called as a peasant struggle, for some it is called as a peasant uprising and some others call it as a peasant revolution. Few other sociologists call it simply a movement.
Whatever may be the term the fact remains that the post-independent India has witnessed a significant revolution in agriculture. This revolution has increased the farm produce. It has now become the surplus farm produce for the market. Thus, agriculture has become capitalistic in nature.
