The Malabar rebellion of 1921 (also called Moplah rebellion, and Mappila rebellion, Malayalam: malabār kalāpam) started as a resistance against the British Raj in certain places in the southern part of old Malabar district of present-day Kerala. The rebellion has been attributed to agrarian grievances and continued unrest among the Moplahs, which developed in the context of British policies toward the community in Malabar.
