About this listen
The Banyan Revolt (novel) https://a.co/d/iAkKddo
The source provides extensive excerpts, including a table of contents and summary, from a narrative titled "The Banyan Revolt," detailing a sustained civil action in the village of Hamro Gaun against the corrupt local strongman, Bhuvan Singh. The text focuses on how a group of youths, led by figures like Maya and Arjun, organize a "Haat Revolt" using non-violent resistance, civic technology (drones, blockchain ledgers, magnet carts, a "light spine" microgrid), and community organization to challenge Singh's control over local markets and transport. Key events include successfully resisting violence at a public Mela, establishing a transparent String & Stone cooperative and a Transparency Wall, and winning crucial legal victories that convert their community protocols into court-recognized standards, forcing local officials and police to cooperate in facilitating peaceful assembly and trade. Ultimately, the narrative tracks the movement's evolution from protest to governance as they replace Singh's corrupt system with transparent accounting and logistical control over the mango trade.
