Explanation: - The peasant movements in India have always been centred on the issue of land ownership and land distribution. - The term 'peasant' includes tenant, the small farmers not regularly employed, hired labour, and landless labourers. - The important demands of these movements centred on the reduction of excessive rent or revenue on produce and land redistribution from the rich to the poor. - Swami Sahajanand led the peasant movements in Bihar in the decade of 1930
