Sapta Kranti (Seven Revolutions)
Ram Manohar Lohia gave the idea of Sapta Kranti (Seven Revolutions) for creating a new world order based on socialism in the modern world system.
The Sapta Kranti constituted:
1. The civil disobedience against violent revolutions
2. Economic equality
3. The abolition of castes
4. The emancipation of women
5. National independence
6. An end to colour discrimination
7. The individual’s freedom of thought, free of coercion from collectives of any kind.
Lohia wanted to give a new direction to the movement for socialism by giving equal emphasis to the struggles against sexism, class, and caste-based exploitations. This was a departure from the Marxist line of a class-centric programme for a socialist revolution. It also went beyond the Gandhian emphasis on a constructive programme of ending untouchability and casteism.
