Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study is the first ever attempted to enquire into the dynamics of land reforms administration in West Bengal during the Left Front regime. The quantitative data for the study have been collected by the field investigators. The study provides an estimable account of the restricting and re-orientation of the former bureaucratic apparatus to meet the tasks of operation Barga and land reforms. The baring of mass politicisation on bureaucratic machinery and also the interaction between popular consciousness and executive power have been analysed. The enquiry makes a good effort to appreciate the levels and patterns of perception of the toiling masses (bargadards and patta holders) vis-a-vis the land reforms programmes.
