Which local leader in the Nalgonda region joined the 1857 Revolt?

Komaram Bheem
Raja Chakradhar Rao
Ramji Gond
Alluri Sitarama Raju

The correct answer is: A) Komaram Bheem

Komaram Bheem was a tribal leader who fought against the Nizam of Hyderabad and the British East India Company in the early 20th century. He is considered a hero by the Gond people of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.

Bheem was born in 1894 in the village of Chintoor in the Nalgonda district of Hyderabad State. He was the son of a Gond chief, Pedda Bheemanna. Bheem received a traditional education and was trained in the use of weapons and horsemanship.

In 1910, Bheem joined the fight against the Nizam of Hyderabad. He led a guerrilla campaign against the Nizam’s forces, attacking their forts and villages. Bheem’s forces were eventually defeated, but he continued to fight against the Nizam until his death in 1940.

Bheem is remembered as a brave and fearless leader who fought for the rights of the Gond people. He is a symbol of resistance against oppression and injustice.

  • Raja Chakradhar Rao was a ruler of the Nalgonda region in the 18th century. He was not involved in the 1857 Revolt.
  • Ramji Gond was a Gond warrior who fought against the British East India Company in the early 19th century. He was not involved in the 1857 Revolt.
  • Alluri Sitarama Raju was a tribal leader who fought against the British East India Company in the early 20th century. He was not involved in the 1857 Revolt.
