A Kisan manifesto was issued and started a periodical session under Indulal Yagnik. The All India Kisan Sabha organized a Bihar Kisan day on October 18, 1937, against repression done on Satyagrahis. The Bihar Kisan Sabha was founded by Swami Sahajanand Saraswati. The All India Kisan Sabha and the Congress held their second session in Faizpur in 1936.
