Early life

Chakradhar Behera was born on 16 July 1894 in an Odia Hindu Gopal (Yadav) family at Ankapada village, Bhadrak district of Odisha. He passed his matriculation from Bhadrak high school in the year 1918 and then the king of the Kanika estate appointed him as his accountant.[5]

Kanika Movement leadership

In October 1921, Behera joined the Non-co-operation movement.[6] In December 1921 the British authorities decided to undertake a new illegal settlement of revenue collations. This became a constant source of friction between the british subordinate king and the tenants. At the time he worked as an accountant of the king, he resigned from his post and organised agitation against the Raja so as to secure the rights of the tenants. Under his leadership a meeting was organised in January 1922. The Raja of Kanika and British authorities wholly co-operated with each other in suppressing the tenants. He bowed neither to the Kanika Raja nor to British authorities and then the high court arrested him on 29 June 1930 for having taken the lead in the no tax campaign.Шаблон:Fact
