A Tribute to Kerala’s Social Reformer

Sri Vyasa NSS College, Wadakkanchery, observed a remarkable event on 26th August 2025. The Department of History organized a road walk to honor Ayyankali, the legendary social reformer of Kerala.

Event Highlights

Students carried placards with strong messages such as:

• “The right to walk is the right to freedom”
• “Educate to Liberate”

The peaceful march went from the college campus to Parlikkad route, commemorating Ayyankali’s revolutionary struggle for equality and justice.

Symbolic Tribute

The walk symbolically retraced the historic Villuvandi Samaram (bullock cart strike). This reminded everyone of Ayyankali’s defiance against caste discrimination and his fight for the right to walk on public roads.

Legacy of Ayyankali

The event served as a reminder of his tireless efforts:

• Securing access to public education for marginalized communities.
• Fighting against caste-based restrictions.
• Inspiring generations to strive for social justice and inclusivity.

Kerala’s Pride

For students and the wider community, the walk was not only an act of remembrance but also a call to uphold Ayyankali’s legacy in building a more inclusive society. His vision of equality (samaadhikaravum samaathwavum) still resonates deeply in Kerala today.
