The primary objective of this organization was to mobilize peasants and address their grievances against zamindars who were encroaching upon their rights to land occupancy. This marked the beginning of the farmers&#8217; movement in India.<\/li><li>Over time, the peasant movement gained strength and spread across the country. These radical developments within the peasant community eventually led to the formation of the All India Kisan Sabha during the Lucknow session of the Indian National Congress in April 1936. Swami Sahajanand Saraswati was elected as the first president of the All India Kisan Sabha.<\/li><li>Prominent members of this Sabha included N.G. Ranga, E.M.S. Namboodiripad, Indulal Yagnik, Sohan Singh Bhakna, Z.A. Ahmed, Pandit Karyanand Sharma, Pandit Yamuna Karjee, Pandit Yadunandan (Jadunandan) Sharma, Rahul Sankrityayan, P. Sundarayya, and Ram Manohar Lohia.<\/li><li>In August 1936, the Kisan Sabha issued the Kisan Manifesto, which called for the abolition of the Zamindari system and the cancellation of rural debts. In October 1937, the organization adopted the red flag as its official banner.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>However, as time passed, the leaders of the All India Kisan Sabha grew increasingly distant from the Indian National Congress. They clashed with Congress governments in Bihar and the United Provinces (now Uttar Pradesh).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Features_of_All_India_Kisan_Sabha\"><\/span>Features of All India Kisan Sabha<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The All India Kisan Sabha was established in April 1936 in Lucknow, with Swami Sahjanand Saraswati serving as the president and N.G.
