योग्य कथन ओळखा :
(a) महाराष्ट्राच्या शेतकरी संघटनेने "शेतकऱ्यांचे आंदोलन हे इंडियाच्या फौजे विरुद्ध भारताचे युद्ध" म्हणून जाहीर केले.
(b) भारतीय किसान युनियन ही 70 च्या दशकातील शेतकऱ्यांच्या आंदोलनातील एक प्रमुख संघटना होती.
पर्यायी उत्तरे :

The correct answer is Option A (Only (a)).

Key Points:
• Agrarian Movements and Pressure Groups in India:
• Statement (a) is CORRECT: Sharad Joshi, founder of the Shetkari Sanghatana in Maharashtra, famously coined the ideological dichotomy between 'Bharat' (the exploited, impoverished agricultural countryside) and 'India' (the urban, industrial, westernized elite), framing the farmers' agitation as a liberation war of Bharat against India.
• Statement (b) is INCORRECT: The Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) led by Chaudhary Mahendra Singh Tikait gained national prominence in the late 1980s (specifically the 1988 historic Boat Club rally in New Delhi), NOT the seventies. The 1970s agrarian mobilizations were largely under Charan Singh's Bharatiya Lok Dal or local Kisan Sabhas.
• Therefore, only statement (a) is correct.
• Key Takeaway: Sharad Joshi's Shetkari Sanghatana framed agrarian agitations as Bharat vs India; BKU was prominent in the late 1980s.
