Answer: (C) British Colonial Rule and Hindu Landlords
The Moplah Rebellion of 1921 in the Malabar region of present-day Kerala was a significant uprising by the Muslim Mappila (Moplah) community, who were largely tenant farmers. The rebellion was fueled by grievances against the oppressive tenancy system under upper-caste Hindu landlords (Jenmis) and the perceived support these landlords received from the British colonial administration. Anti-colonial sentiment and the influence of the Khilafat Movement also played a crucial role in the uprising. While initially focused on agrarian issues and British authority, the rebellion unfortunately took a communal turn in some areas.
