Many a times, i noticed that some editors who closely follow my edits, are admant in removing sources on the basis of it's quality. Here i will be using Naxalism in plains of Bihar by Kalyan Mukherjee and Rajendra Singh Yadav, which is one of the primary source for Bhojpur uprising. It is possible that one may not find information about these authors or the source may not appear to be of high quality, like those from Oxford University press, but i would like to make it clear that, this book is cited by many scholars, in context of Bhojpur uprising. Here is one example, where Ranajit Guha had cited it : Selected Subaltern Studies page162Admantine123 (talk) 03:51, 21 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
This is where Dalit landless labourers, either casual or bonded (through indebtedness), toiled at extremely low wages for long hours (i.e. were subjected to super-exploitation) and suffered a denial of basic human dignity their wives and daughters constantly subjected to sexual tyranny-in the fields and other domains of the upper-caste landlords, Rajputs and Bhumihars. The latter wielded not only economic but also political power, their links with the state apparatus underwriting such coercive dominance. Their upper-caste status not only assured them access to the means of production that the green revolution techniques required but also structured the relations of production vis-à-vis the Dalit landless labourers. In such a milieu, it was taken for granted that "unfree labour" would coexist with the landlords' capitalistic drive for profit maximisation.
