History
Stronnictwo Ludowe (Peasant Party), the largest political grouping in the Polish underground, maintained military units known as Bataliony Chłopskie and insisted on retaining operation control over them. In principle the BCh supported the Związek Walki Zbrojnej, though they mistrusted the professional military establishment and suspected it of planning to restore the prewar regime. It partly integrated in the Armia Krajowa.
