About the Book
For most people, Dooars and North Bengal are synonymous with tourist destinations and endless tea gardens. However, hidden beneath this familiar image lies a powerful history of struggles and movements. One of the most significant among them is the Tebhaga Movement, an important chapter of which—spread across the Dooars region—has long remained neglected.

In this book, Madhusree Bandyapadhyay and Supriyo Basu explore how the Tebhaga Movement created waves across North Bengal and deeply influenced its social and political landscape. By tracing the identities of those who stood united with the movement, the authors attempt to recover the history of many forgotten and marginalized participants.

Through conversations with key activists of the Tebhaga Movement and their interaction with the present generation, the authors reconstruct a vivid historical narrative. The book draws strength from the memories, information, and contributions of countless people from North Bengal, making it a valuable collective archive.

This work offers a fresh perspective on the Tebhaga Movement, uncovering lesser-known histories and voices. It is more than a historical study—it is an expression of gratitude and acknowledgment to those whose struggles shaped the region’s past.
