The plantation workers were not allowed to leave the tea gardens under the Inland Emigration Act of 1859 the planters were not satisfied with this law and supported Gandhi in his freedom struggle . So when they heard of the Non-Cooperation Movement, thousands of workers defied the authorities, left the plantations and headed home.They believed that Gandhi Raj was coming and everyone would be given land in their own village which was also a factor for their support to Gandhi's struggle for freedom. Unfortunately they, never reached their destination. Stranded on the way by a railway and steamer strike, they were caught by the police and brutally beaten up. For them, freedom meant the right to move freely in and out of the confined space in which they were enclosed. When they heard of non cooperation movement thousands of workers left their plantation, defined the authorities and headed towards their home .
