Cevap

Kakatiya Dynasty of Warangal
The Sammakka Saralamma Jatara is celebrated in Medaram, Telangana, by the Koya tribe to honor the mother-daughter duo Sammakka and Saralamma. Regional historical lore holds that during the Kakatiya era under King Prataparudra, the tribal belt faced a severe drought. When the king's ministers demanded royal tribute, the tribal leaders refused to comply due to their people's starvation and launched an armed rebellion against the Kakatiya army, culminating in their revered martyrdom.
