Sinopsis

Shetkaryacha Asud (transl. The Cultivator's Whipcord ) is a book written by Jyotirao Phule in 1881, originally in Marathi, describing the plight and poverty of Indian cultivators under exploitative social and economic conditions. Mahatma Phule fearlessly advocated for impoverished peasants during a time of severe oppression by landlords and the administration. In this book, he boldly challenged the elite and the colonial authorities for their role in the exploitation of farmers. The book gives a few of the numerous reasons connected with the religion and politics that had put the Shudra farmers in such a pitiable condition. It argues that a tyrannical religion, the dominance of Brahmin employees in government departments and the luxury-loving indolence of British administrators meant that the Shudra farmers were tormented and deceived.
