The Kisan Andolan or the Indian farmers’ protest of 2020-2021 is one of the longest and biggest (and victorious) social movements in the history of independent India. This book adopts a multidisciplinary approach to contextualise the movement in the long run. It engages with the historical, social and religious roots of the Andolan, examining what makes it so unique and transformative for Indian polity.

Through interviews, the volume also gives a specific voice and platform to grassroots activists and farmers from the movement.
