== Maha Sangh ==
{{Main|Maha Sangh (Fiji)}}
1938 me Kisan Sangh ke neta bane ke invitation ke reject kare ke baad bhi June 1941 me , A. D. Patel, Swami Rudranand ke saathe ek nawaa kisan ke union, Maha Sangh ke suruu karis.
Although, in 1938, he had rejected overtures by the Kisan Sangh to take over its leadership, in June 1941, A.D. Patel formed the Maha Sangh with the support of Swami Rudrananda. In 1943, he led the sugar cane farmers on a prolonged strike after his demands for an increase in the price of sugar cane in line with inflation was rejected by the Colonial Sugar Refining Company. When the majority of farmers refused to harvest their cane, the Government invoked the Defence Regulation and restricted A.D. Patel and Swami Rudrananda to a radius of five miles from their homes in Nadi and required them to inform the police on person of their movements. Both Patel and Rudrananda decided to disobey the order and it landed both of them in court. This stirred up the farmers and a large number gathered in Nadi, holding prayer meetings. Shops were closed throughout the Western division. Both were fined £50 each or one month’s prison in default. Both refused to pay, but before the five days allowed was over, an anonymous well-wisher paid the fine but A. D. Patel later won the case on appeal. The strike in the middle of a world war and his call for Indians to not join the army until they were given the same pay and conditions as Europeans, created a rift between Indians and Fijians which is remembered to this day.
