Tebhaga literally means ‘three shares’ of harvests.

It was a militant campaign initiated in Bengal by the Kisan Sabha (peasants front of Communist Party of India) in 1946-47.
As a response to the agitations, the then Muslim League ministry in the province launched the Bargadar Act, which provided that the share of the harvest given to the landlords would be limited to one third of the total. But the law was not fully implemented.
There was large-scale participation of women in movement.
The landless and poor peasant women formed fighting troops called Nari Bahini And took a front rank role in defending the gains of the movement and in countering the repression of the stateIncorrect
