The Kisan Sabha, also known as the All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS), was a prominent peasant organization that played a crucial role in mobilizing and advocating for the rights and interests of farmers and peasants in India. It was formed in 1936 under the leadership of Swami Sahajanand Saraswati, N.G. Ranga, and others.
The ‘Ryothu Rakshana Yatra’ was a significant event organized by the Kisan Sabha to raise awareness about the issues faced by the farming community and to demand better rights and protection for farmers. The yatra covered a long distance from Ichapuram in the present-day state of Andhra Pradesh to Chennai (then known as Madras), the capital of the Madras Presidency.
Therefore, option (a) Kisan Sabha is the correct answer for the organization that organized the ‘Ryothu Rakshana Yatra’ from Ichapuram to Chennai in the Chennai presidency 1937-38.
