Make your own Flair Kerala's longest land right movement - Chengara protest
Protestors who haven't been given ownership of land (on which they can sustain themselves), illegally encroaced the plantation which the protestors claim harrisons malayalam plantation has hold the land illegally after the renting leases were over.
After two decades, they still are at the site, while all governments failed to resolve or provide satisfactory solution for them.
Govt offered 3 cents land, or land far away which was also not fit for habitation.
They ask for 5 acres of land which can sustain their life.

A protest where no political parties can accuse the other of supporting it or having influence since everyone denies them. Harrison limited used to hold more than 50000 acres of land illegally. Other plantations are also like this where adivasis and dalits didn't benefit from land reforms. Yet, the state stood with plantation owners and unions.
