The Tebhaga movement was a peasant movement that took place in Bengal, India, during the late 1940s. The movement primarily aimed at securing the rights of sharecroppers, who were typically tenants cultivating land owned by landlords. The term "Tebhaga" refers to the demand for a two-thirds share of the produce by the sharecroppers, as opposed to the traditional half-share.
