⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀The Breast Tax (Mulakkaram or mula-karam in Malayalam) was a tax imposed on the lower caste (Shudra) and untouchable (Dalit) Hindu women by the Kingdom of Tranvancore (in present-day Kerala state of India) if they wanted to cover their breasts in public, until 1924.[1][2][3] The lower caste and untouchable women were expected to pay the government a tax on their breasts, as soon as they started developing breasts.[4][5] The lower caste men had to pay a similar tax, called tala-karam, on their heads.[6] Travancore tax collectors would visit every house to collect the Breast Tax from any lower caste women who passed the age of puberty.[7] The tax was evaluated by the tax collectors depending on the size of their breasts.
