He led a revolt against the British East India Company in 1809, which was ultimately unsuccessful.<\/p>\n<p>The revolt was caused by a number of factors, including the British East India Company&#8217;s increasing interference in the affairs of Travancore, the Company&#8217;s attempts to impose taxes on the people of Travancore, and the Company&#8217;s support for the rival princely family of Cochin.<\/p>\n<p>The revolt began in 1809, when Velu Thampi Dalawa declared Travancore independent from the British East India Company. The revolt was initially successful, and Velu Thampi Dalawa was able to capture a number of British forts.
