Chundur Massacre

::‘On July 9, Reddys and Telagas formed into a committee and decided to enforce a social boycott of the Dalits (Malas).

While the upper castes engaged outside labour to work in their fields, the Dalits left to places like Tenali and Ponnur in search of work.

The next biggest community was that of the Malas, which accounted for a quarter of the village’s population.

A 50 strong police picket headed by Tenali Rural Circle Inspector was posted in the village since then.
