There was no place for modern and progressive ideas in the village. The Kamma caste ruled the roost. Yadavas, Rajakas, Nayibrahmins, Upparas, Chundu nayaks, Muslims, Yerukulas, Yanadis, Malas and Madigas were living in the village. Kammas owned thousands of acres of land. They presided over and decided all village affairs. The big shots among them included the families of Daggubati, Chaganti, Yarlagadda, Perni, Manda and Puvati. The fattened Kammas routinely ill-treated, humiliated and physically assaulted workers who toiled in their houses. They were also known to murder their workers and the bodies disappeared for ever. Ten years before the Karamchedu carnage, Upperas, Backward Caste people, rebelled against the brutality of Kammas. The latter frequently raided Upperapalem and attacked Upperas.

Venkateswarlu, a Chundunayak leader, tried to organise peasants for a wage hike. Kammas barbarically assaulted him. Venkateswarlu ran away and hid himself in Madigapalle. Kammas asked the Madigas to hand over Venkateswarlu to them. Madigas rejected Kammas' demand. They told Kammas bluntly that they would protect Venkateswarlu even at the cost of their lives. Unable to challenge the Madigas, they went back. But the Kammas from that day, nurtured hatred against Madigas. Later they attacked Malas and the Madigas rescued the Malas. That incident further enraged them. They were only waiting for a ruse to settle scores with Madigas. The Madigapalle of Karamchedu was full of self-respect. Four hundred families had the same surname. Families of Tella and Duddu were the main force of Madigas. They were all warriors and experts in karrasamu. They used to perform martial art with sticks to the rhythm of billamgodu tune. Yehoshua was the best among them. The Madigapalle was bound by a code of conduct. Elders watched over its strict adherence. Madigas were agricultural labourers. Though they depended on Kammas for their modest living, they never compromised on self-respect. They fought to the end in defence of their dignity.

July 16, 1985

Two Kamma youth, Potina Seenu and Rayineedu Prasad, took their buffaloes to the drinking water tank in Madigapalle. They fed the buffaloes with washings of rice in buckets. While they were washing the dirty buckets in the tank, Katti Chandraiah, a Dalit boy, objected to it. His courage angered Seenu and Prasad. They were about to beat up Chandraiah when Munnangi Suvaartha, a Madiga woman, came to the tank to collect water. She tried to protect the boy from the attack of Kamma youths. Seenu and Prasad threw hunters at her. She lifted her vessel and warded off the hunters. Suvaartha's lifting of vessel in self-defence became a pretext for Kammas, who were itching for a fresh quarrel with Madigas after the election clash. They used the trivial occasion for a ghastly attack on Madigas. 'A Madiga woman lifted the vessel to attack Kammas. There was no meaning for our caste domination,' fumed Kammas. But they knew that they alone could not attack Madigas. They mobilised Kammas of seven surrounding villages, swooped on the Madigapalle on July 17th morning. They raided every Dalit's house, drove Madigas into fields. The blood thirsty Kammas beat Madigas, stabbed them and axed them. They raped Dalit women. They became murderers and barbarians and it was no exaggeration.. They chased and hunted Madigas for over 7 km. The murder and mayhem had no parallel in the Indian subcontinent. Duddu Moshe, Duddu Ramesh, Tella Yehoshua, Tella Moshe, Tella Muthaiah and Duddu Abraham were axed to death by Kammas. In fact, eight Dalits were killed in the Kammas' attack. Police did not show two bodies to the victims and secretly buried them.

Police did not show two bodies to the victims and secretly buried them.

The surprised Madigas ran for their lives. Some ran into houses, some hid under haystacks, while others ran into the fields. But their pursuers were unrelenting. They ransacked the houses and hacked at the doors and walls with axes. Duddu Vandanam and Duddu Ramesh were caught running out of their houses, and were attacked with axes. Vandanam died on the spot and Ramesh four days later in hospital. Vandanam’s mother Duddu Alisamma who was an eyewitness to his death, was found dead under mysterious circumstances a year later. Those who ran into the fields including Tellu Yevasu, Moshe and Muthaiah were chased and murdered there.

The manner in which Moshe, a 70-year-old was killed is illustrative of the gruesome massacre that took place that day. He first begged with them to spare him, as he was an old man. When they started beating him, he ran into the fields. They caught up with him, hacked him with an axe, and as he fell down on his back, they dug a spear into his groin and twisted it. Mutaiah and Yevasu were also beaten with sticks, axed and speared to death in a similar manner. Duddu Yesu was another person who had been axed and died in a hospital five days later, taking the death toll to six. About twenty other were hospitalised with severe injuries to the heads and limbs.

400 odd dalit familes left the village, reached the nearby town of Chirala and established a rehabilitation camp and began a protest campaign to get new jobs and houses.

 

This was when the chief minister of the state was Kamma N.T. Rama Rao. In fact NTR’s son-in-law Daggubati Venkateswara was the MLA from that area and his father Chenchuramaiah was one of the main accused

(Katti Padma Rao writes that sometime before the incident, Chenchuramaiah sent for the Dalits and asked them to vote for his son. The Dalits had replied that they would think about it. While the voting was taking place, Kammas began to suspect the Dalits were voting for the congress and tried to obstruct the poll. However, the Dalits went ahead with their voting and the Kammas could not tolerate this defiance)

[jaglaq]

A trial court in Ongole convicted 159 Kammas involved in the atrocity to life imprisonment, but this was later struck down by the AP high court. A special leave petition was filed in the Supreme court in October 1998, and ten years later a bench in the apex court upheld the conviction. However it sentenced the main accused Anjaiah to a life term and 29 others to three years of jail. (Presumably the other murderers and rapists were let go)
