Oudh Kisan Sabha was set up headed by Jawaharlal Nehru, Baba Ramchandra and a few others.

1. In Awadh, a movement was led by Baba Ramchandra against the talukdars and landlords.

2. The peasants were asked to pay high rents and cesses.

3. Peasants had to do begar, a form of labour that villagers had to contribute without any wages.

4. The movement demanded the abolition of begar, reduction of revenue and social boycott of oppressive landlords.

5. Jawaharlal Nehru went around the villages to understand the grievances of the villagers.

Thus, in June 1920, Oudh Kisan Sabha was started.
