Answer 1

Both activities conducted by the BKU to pressurize the state for accepting its demands included rallies, demonstrations, sit-ins, and jail bharo (courting imprisonment) agitations and the organisation used traditional caste panchayats of these communities in bringing them together over economic issues.   

Explanation:

Rallies, protests, sit-ins, and jail bars? (courting imprisonment) agitations were among the BKU's tactics for pressuring the state into accepting its demands. Thousands of farmers from several villages in western Uttar Pradesh and neighboring areas took part in the protests. Throughout the 1980s, the BKU organised enormous protests of these farmers in many of the state's district offices, as well as in the nation's capital. The usage of farmer caste ties was another innovative component of these mobilizations. The majority of BKU members belonged to a particular group. The organisation exploited these communities' traditional caste panchayats to bring people together around economic difficulties. Despite its lack of institutional organisation, the BKU has been able to survive for a long period.
