Agrarian Discontentment In Bikaner Riyasat - Paperback

by Mohanlal Gupta (Author)

The real history of peasants' miserable life has gone with the victims. The screams, the tears and the agony of Agrarians have disappeared in the loud voices of happiness of India's independence. We can follow the faint foot-prints only. Major part of the history of that era was buried in state government's records and residency records but unfortunately, these records were burnt at the dawn of independence. Mr. Conard Corfield, the political adviser of the last Viceroy of India did this nasty job. This book is an honest attempt to throw a little light on the facts so that the more realistic portrait can be drawn. The period of the study of Agrarians discontentment of Bikaner Riyasat in this book is taken from the year of 1927 to 1952 A. D., which includes the reigns of Maharaja Ganga Singh (1887-1943) and Maharaja Sadul Singh (1943-1949), and the popular governments of United State of Greater Rajasthan (1949-1952).
