What was the economic meaning of the two-thirds demand in the Tebhaga Movement?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Increasing the share of sharecroppers

The direct answer is A: increasing the share of sharecroppers. Tebhaga means ‘two-thirds’. In Bengal, sharecroppers cultivated land owned by jotedars or landlords and usually had to surrender a large part of the harvest. They demanded that two-thirds of the produce should go to the cultivators, while the landlord should receive the remaining one-third. Thus the demand was economic: it sought a fairer distribution and a larger return for those doing the farming. A is correct. B is wrong because indigo planters and their profits belonged to a different plantation issue, not the Tebhaga demand. C is unrelated to Bengal’s agrarian struggle; naval wages concern sailors. D is unrelated and refers to a religious-place tax, not crop sharing. Exam cue: Tebhaga = ‘three shares’ in the sense of two shares for the cultivator and one for the landlord; connect it with Bengal sharecroppers and agrarian class conflict.
