Ajivika Ke liye Sangharsh ( A Struggle for livelihood )
This book is process document of movement by mushar, dalit, farmers against the massey tractors snatching their livelihood. This book shows how people united and struggled for their livelihood against the fake policy of the government to nullify the policy. When Massey Ferguson tractors were fist potted in north Bihar last year, the Mushars thought they were sunk. Fully mechanized, the tractors could dig, fill and level earth. They could even load and unload big quantities of mud. The Mushars repaired miles of river embankments, every year. They survived on that income. Now the tractors would take over. But they decided to fight. Backed by Lok Shakti Sangathan (LSS) a people’s organization, the Mushars launched a sprited agitation, roping in small farmers and contractors. The movement succeeded and people got employment. This whole movement was decided to document so that it could be used as reference material in future.
