Explanation

The Gudem-Rampa Rebellion (1922–1924) was a significant tribal uprising in the Rampa region of the Madras Presidency, located in present-day Andhra Pradesh [4]. The movement was led by Alluri Sitarama Raju, who organized the Koya and Kondadora tribes against the British '1882 Madras Forest Act' that restricted their traditional 'Podu' (shifting) cultivation and access to forest resources [1]. Raju, often referred to as 'Manyam Veerudu' (Hero of the Jungles), employed guerrilla warfare tactics and led attacks on several police stations, such as Chintapalli, to seize arms [3]. In contrast, Birsa Munda led the Munda Ulgulan in the Chotanagpur region [2], Mangal Pandey was a key figure in the 1857 Mutiny at Barrackpore [3], and Kushal Konwar was a freedom fighter from Assam. Raju was eventually captured and executed by the British in 1924 [3].
