Chauri Chaura: The Riot and Independence Movementचौरी चौरा: विद्रोह और स्वाधीनता आंदोलन

Subhash Chandra Kushwaha's monograph Chauri Chaura is a record of a little yet significantly important in current Indian history—the Chauri Chaura revolt. The episode occurred at Chauri Chaura, a small town in Uttar Pradesh (North India), on February 4, 1922 when a few workers consumed a police headquarters killing 23 cops. The occasion has an especially curious status in Indian history since it was recognized as a 'criminal' act by the British colonial government as well as lso by mainstream anti-colonial nationalist leaders. The book is a definite record of the occasions that prompted the riot and its result. 



Kushwaha attempts to recover the original story and facts through government judicial records and responses of national leadership. To recover the original workers' side of the story, he draws in with neighborhood society melodies and contemporary oral records of the occasion. Utilizing oral history as a file for an occasion that occurred in 1922 is an imaginative technique to concentrate on inferior obstruction. His philosophy isn't extremely not quite the same as that of Shahid Amin (1995) who likewise wrote the incident’s story in Event, Metaphor, Memory: Chauri Chaura, 1922-1992—a nuanced work that shows how national history is made.


Kushwaha has divided the Chauri Chaura story into three parts : in the first part he has discussed the reasons for the riots and Mahatma Gandhi’s politics. In the second and third part he has discussed the details and the aftermaths of the incident.Despite the various challenges with archive materials, Kushwaha successfully weaves the narrative while identifying local actors who faced criminal charges and the toll the incident took on their families.


Similarly, to explain the features of the socio-political environment in the 1920s, he highlighted the critical influence of the Russian Revolution on Indian laborers. If the connection was developed, it could have become an excellent example of how thoroughly the history of a small market town in colonial India was twisted with global developments.
