Rampa Rebellion Memorial lies in neglect

February 28, 2025

THE war memorial commemorating the Rampa Rebellion in Narsipatnam of Anakapalle district has fallen into neglect, covered in garbage and liquor bottles, being used for open defecation.

- USHA PERI @ Visakhapatnam

The site, which includes the tombs of British officers killed during the rebellion led by Alluri Sitarama Raju, is overgrown with weeds and nearly inaccessible due to encroachment.

The memorial holds historical significance as it marks the final resting place of British officers Lionel Neville Hytor and Christopher William Scott Coward, who were ambushed and killed by Alluri Sitarama Raju's forces in 1922.

Their deaths were a critical moment in the rebellion, which saw Alluri and his followers challenge British rule through direct assaults on police stations and strategic guerrilla warfare.
