In 1930, after the commencement of the Salt Satyagraha, a peasant agitation in an organised manner was started in U.P. by Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru, which provided enormous strength to the civil disobedience movement. The agitation contributed in two ways to the civil disobedience movement. In the first place it contri¬buted in creating an awakening among the farmers of India and infused new life into them. In the second place the struggle, launched by Nehru, strengthened the C.D.M. It was this awakening which made the farmers fearless in their relations with Zamindars, Taluqdars, Police and Officials and ultimately it brought about a gradual decline in the injus¬tices and cruelties committed against the farmers by the landlords and others. It was this agitation which laid the foundation for the abolition of the Zamindari system. The present volume will help in a modest way in augmenting the treasure house of knowledge for the Political, Social, Economic and Historical forces of the times because all important literature relating to the work, activities and thinking of Pt. Nehru during the peasant agitation has been incorpora¬ted in this book.
