The Moplah Rebellion (also known as the Malabar Rebellion) was a massive anti-colonial and agrarian uprising that broke out in 1921 in the Malabar region of Kerala. It was primarily led by the Moplah (Mappila) Muslims against the British authorities and the local Hindu landlords (Janmis) who were supported by the colonial administration.
The Moplah Rebellion is historically associated with the Non-Cooperation and Khilafat Movement (1920-1922) led by Mahatma Gandhi and the Ali Brothers.
The rebellion was centered in the Eranad and Walluvanad taluks of the Malabar district.
It originated as a protest against the oppressive British colonial land-tenure system.
The movement gained momentum during the peak of the Khilafat and Non-Cooperation movements.
The revolt is often cited in history exams for its complex socio-political roots involving agrarian distress and religious sentiment.
Prominent leaders included Variyankunnath Kunjahammed Haji and Seethi Koya Thangal.
Option A (Punjab) is incorrect as it was the site of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre (1919), not Moplah. Option B (Bengal) is linked to the Partition of 1905, and Option D (Assam) is associated with the 1857 revolts led by Maniram Dewan.
C is correct тАФ The Moplah Rebellion of 1921 took place in the Malabar region of Kerala.
Always link the 1921 Moplah Rebellion to the 1922 Chauri Chaura incident; both events caused immense strain on the continuity of the Non-Cooperation Movement.
