Ana. In the gudem hill of Andhra Pradesh a militant guerilla movement spread in early 1920’s this movement was not similar to Gandhiji non-cooperation movement yet the inspiration came from Gandhiji.
The movement was basically protest against forest laws. Here, as in other forest regions, the colonial government has closed the forest areas, preventing people for entering forests to graze their cattle or to collect firewood or fruits. This enraged the people of the hills.Not only where they deprived of their livelihood and food but also their traditional rights too were denied when the government compelled them to work free (Begar) for road-building.
They revolted under Alluri Sitaram Raju who was popular because of his special power of astrological predictions and the power to heal people. He could survive bullets-shorts. The rebels believed that he was an incarnation of god.Though Raju respected Gandhiji, he asserted that India could be liberated only by use of force and not through non-violence.
The gudem rebels attacked police stations and attempted to kill British officials.Raju was eventually captured and executed in 1924.
