Britishers killed many Indians buy scaffolding who are involved in freedom movement. But one petty King hanged one British.
He was lived near Udumalai, Tirupur district. That bravable, admirable kings inscription was damaged in public places so carelessly. That create regretfulness.
That looks like throw out in public places. dhali town panchayat was located on the way of Udumalpet to Thirumoorthy Hills. one of the proudable king in South Tamilnadu was king Ethalappar.
He ruled over the cities that as follows: palanee, virupatchi, aayakudi, idayakottai, uthukkuli, and dhali.
These places are called South kongunadu 1880 A.D. Historical book about ethalappar and said about, that places all are ruled by 16 Kings in their genealogy. This inscription documents are damaged so carelessly at the great Banyan Tree behind the Thirumoorthy Dam. Finally, malayandi ethalappar and his younger brother venkidubhathi ethalappar ruled over those places.
In 1799 A.D, Veerapandiya Kattabomman was hanged by British officials. As a matter of fact, that create so much annoyance into him. He raged against that. At the time of Vijayanagara empire, the Mysore King Tipu Sultan and Veerapandiya Kattabomman both are defeated by British.
After that, the British were enthusiastic to rule more and more places. so they send messages to places specifically Palayangal.on the time, British send one messanger from thanjavur to Dhali.
His name is Andrew cathie’s. They isolated that messenger to scaffolding and hanged out to express our opposition against British coupled with to teach lesson to British for hanged out virapaandiya kattabomman.
Andrew cathei’s hanged out the place was called thookumarathottam( scaffolding place) that was at thinnaiKulam village yet now. This inscription is the only evidence to prove that south kongu palaykaars was also one of them who creates Independence insurgency against British. now that scaffolding place belonged to some private property. The Tomb was created when that Andrew Cathy’s buried.
On that Tomb Crucifix or cross also fixed. Inscription about him also closed on that tomb.
The written language in that inscription was in Tamil. Archaeologist Mr.poongundran said about that book was as follows: dhali paalayakaars also is in the list of brave men who a hanged out Britishers. It is the only evidence for to prove that.
Government should have to occupy that to prevent and conservation. The iron fence conserve that buried place for hundreds of years.
when the people know about that, they will come to the place to see to know about our history. That fort was collapsed by war against British.
He was killed on that war. he was killed by British in his native soil and his fort also looted and collapsed by them.
Today’s generation did not know about that bravable, patriotic ethalappar story. This is the day to remember our freedom martyr’s who sacrificed their lives for our country.
on this happy day, we celebrate our independence. Our Independence was not just served us on a plate. It was got after many struggles faced by our Martyr’s.
