Madari Pasi took over the leadership of the ‘Eka Movement’ in Awadh during 1921-1922.
The Eka (Unity) Movement was a peasant movement that emerged in certain districts of Awadh, Uttar Pradesh. It initially had Congress and Khilafat support, but after Congress withdrew due to increasing violence, the movement was taken over by Madari Pasi, who provided a leadership independent of the Congress.
The Eka Movement primarily focused on demands related to high rents, oppression by landlords, and the practice of *begar* (forced labour). Baba Ramchandra was a prominent leader of the earlier Kisan Sabha movement in Awadh.
