In British colonial India, the unrest of the peasants and the workers was a well-established common feature, as the colonial set-up was interested in gaining maximum revenue from the cultivator and wanted to obtain maximum profit by paying meager wages to the workers. But by the time we come to the second decade of the 20th century, due to the ongoing Indian independence struggle and the Gandhian strategy of mass involvement in national struggle, the peasants and workers too became a part of the national movement. Consequently, separate organizations representing the interests of the peasants and workers took shape in different parts of India.
