History
Morazha Protest
The KPCC called the people of Malabar to observe Anti-Imperialist Day on 15 September 1940. It was disapproved by the High Command of Congress, but meetings and demonstrations were held in North Malabar area on that day. The centre of this agitation was Morazha. Two young men and 23 others were killed in a clash between a mob and a police party at Morazha. The young men were two police officers Sub-Inspector K.M Kuttikrishna Menon and Constable Raman. Communist leader K.P.R. Gopalan was sentenced to death for murder in connection with this incident, but due to pressure from Mahatma Gandhi and others, the sentence was never carried out. The Quit India Movement also echoed in Morazha. A socialist group among the Congress workers under K.B. Menon, provided leadership to the movement.[5][6]
