The ‘Amara Sullia’ revolt of 1830-31 took place in which region of Karnataka?

Kodagu (Coorg)
Dakshina Kannada
Uttara Kannada
Shimoga

The correct answer is A) Kodagu (Coorg).

The Amara Sullia revolt of 1830-31 was a rebellion against the British East India Company in the princely state of Kodagu (Coorg). The revolt was led by Amara Sullia, a local chieftain, and was supported by the people of Kodagu. The revolt was unsuccessful, and Amara Sullia was killed. However, the revolt is remembered as an important event in the history of Kodagu.

Kodagu is a district in the Indian state of Karnataka. It is located in the Western Ghats mountains, and is known for its coffee plantations and its beautiful scenery. Kodagu was formerly a princely state, and was ruled by the Kodava people. The Kodavas are a warrior race, and have a long history of resistance to foreign rule.

The British East India Company first came to Kodagu in the early 18th century. The Company was interested in Kodagu’s coffee plantations, and began to exert control over the state. The Kodavas resisted British rule, and there were several rebellions against the Company. The Amara Sullia revolt was the last major rebellion against the British in Kodagu.

The Amara Sullia revolt began in 1830. Amara Sullia was a local chieftain, and he was opposed to British rule. He gathered a group of followers, and they attacked the British garrison in Sullia. The British were defeated, and Amara Sullia’s forces took control of the town.

The British responded by sending a large force to Kodagu. The British forces defeated Amara Sullia’s forces, and Amara Sullia was killed. The revolt was unsuccessful, but it is remembered as an important event in the history of Kodagu. The revolt showed the determination of the Kodavas to resist foreign rule, and it helped to unite the Kodavas against the British.

The other options are incorrect because they are not regions of Karnataka.
