Explanation:

Ezhava Memorial is a memorandum submitted to the Maharaja of Travancore on

3rd Sept 1896.The Travancore Ezhava Sabha took the initiative in preparing and presenting

the memorial.It was signed by 13176 members of the Ezhava community.It pleaded for

among other things, the extension of civil rights and government jobs to members of the

lower castes and the Ezhavas in particular. It also pleaded for the opening of public

schools to the Ezhavas.It demanded that the Ezhavas be made beneficiaries of these rights

and privileges enjoyed by the converts to Christianity.The response of the government was

disappointing. Hence a second memorial was presented to the viceroy Curzon in 1900.It

enumerated the grievances of the Ezhavas and requested the viceroy’s initiative in getting

them redressed.The viceroy refused to intervene.Hence both the memorials failed to

achieve their immediate objectives.
