In Alwar state, public awareness began by farmer movement. The state farmers ran a movement as their crops were being ruined by wild pigs. Maharaja ordered to kill the pigs. Later on the state farmers organised a gathering in Nemuchana village against the increased taxes.
Soldiers fired on poeple fleeing the village in which hundreds of men, women and children were martyred. Mahatma Gandhi condemned the Nemuchana controversy strongly. British rulers were pressurized by this incident and they alongwith Alwar Maharaja went for an agreement or reconcilation with farmers.
