The Tebhaga Movement of Bengal, which occurred from 1946 to 1947, stands out as one of the most potent peasant movements in history.
Originating from the demand to reduce rent to one-third, based on the 'Floud Commission' recommendation, the movement aimed to secure two-thirds of the crop for oppressed sharecroppers.
Led by the All India Kisan Sabha, the peasant wing of the Communist Party of India, it marked a significant uprising by farmers on the brink of India's independence and Bengal's partition.
