Why isn't this history being taught in schools. All we are taught is.about rulers of the northern side and middle India. Such a great ruler. Indians should know about her and surely the world.
You are always taught about Significant things. You mean just to appropriate information geopgraphically, you miss out and never tell important information. The most important developments in the South mentioned are Bhakti movement and then the Vijayanagara empire. Other than that, Kerala itself was a land of 100 kingdoms, whom Travancore itself depended on.
U right sir
Because southerners are not really considered 'indians' hence your history is only good for you.
If given the chance, the northies would wipe out southern rulers names as well.
First of all you guys embrace Hinduism and then talk of India.. Portuguese and Syrians are not Indians
എന്റെ, കുട്ടിക്കാലങ്ങളിൽ .. എന്റെ പിതാവ്, ഈ കേരള ചരിത്രങ്ങളൊക്കെ....എത...ഭാവാത്മകമായി ഞങ്ങളെ കേൾപ്പിച്ചിരുന്നു എന്ന് ഇപ്പോൾ സ്മരിക്കുന്നു!! So proud of my father! Proud of my thiruvithamkoor history! Proud of my Cochin history! Proud of my Kerala history!!!!!! But I hate today's politics, intolerance, മതസ്പർദ്ധ, ജാതിയുടെ പേരിൽ പരസ്പരം വിഷം ...ചീറ്റുന്നത്!!!! ഈശ്വരാ.... നമ്മുടെ അടുത്ത തലമുറകളുടെ ഭാവി?????????
Aleyamma Joy രാജാഭരണം ആയിരുന്നു നല്ലത് എന്നാണോ പറഞ്ഞു വരുന്നത്?
Kerala history includes Malabar (samoothiris ,valluvanad, koalthunad as well)
ഇതൊക്കെ കഥകളിൽ കേൾക്കാൻ കൊള്ളാം..നമ്മുടെ നാടിന്റെ കറുത്ത കാലത്തിന്റെ ഓർമ്മകളാണ് രാജഭരണ കാലം
എല്ലാ ഭരണാധികാരികളും താങ്കൾ പറയുമ്പോലെ ആയിരുന്നില്ല. ജനാധിപത്യത്തിലും ഉണ്ടായിട്ടുണ്ടല്ലോ നല്ല ഭരണാധികാരികളും മോശം ഭരണാധികാരികളും. രാജാധികാരം ജനാധിപത്യത്തെക്കാൾ മികച്ചത് എന്ന് അല്ല ഞാൻ ഉദേശിച്ചത്
Thank you all for watching our Documentary - by Sujesh(Director of the Documentary)
Good one, but could have been more researched
All her achievements are conveniently forgotten or converted to Chithira Tirunals name... The reason is simply the ego of Chithira Thirunals mother towards the last queen.
How simply she and her whole family gave up the kingdom and all its luxuries, and even their royal titles to lead a simple living in a different city amongst the commons. Only a great mind can forgo these pleasures for a simpler lifestyle
Whereas the other half of the same royal clan still clings to royalty in this 21st century!! The much celebrated princesses who are still in Travancore(nieces of Chithira Tirunal) are in no way higher in cadre than the last queen's grand daughters. They still live as Mrs Rugmini Verma or Mrs Parvathy Verma while here in Travancore, we still celebrate His Holiness Aswathy Thirunal Gowri Lakshmibai whatever.....!!
The regeant Rani had to leave Travancore not because of the union formed by their employees. That was only the last nail in the coffin. Their estates, allowances and staff were drastically cut down by the renowned Chithira Thirunal and his cunning mother. They were literally reduced to nothing and the Rani was fed up of living in such humiliation, which is why she decided to leave.
Thanks for such good research, it's good to know the history.
What is your perception on the tax system which was implemented by Travancore kingdoms ?
Tax on breast size
Head tax
Ornaments tax
There was a problem of 120 different inhuman taxes which was implemented by Travancore kingdoms to the lower class people in 17th, 18th and till 19th century. Nambudiri Bramhin was the main culprit in that. Why didn’t you people research or speak on on this ?

John Zacharias WHy don't you embrace Hinduism
@@kenny87ification Cuz it's literally one of the most despicable religions in the world.
@@reverseengineer9620 Yes I know that Christianity along with Islam is one of the most despicable religions of this world
@@kenny87ification I find your statement quite comical.
Judeo-Christianity is the foundation of global superpowers such as America, Russia, Britain, Europe, etc.
Islam, (though I do not agree with the philosophy) is the foundation of some of the world's richest and most extravagant countries like UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, etc.
Hinduism on the other hand, is arguably not even the foundation of India (Britain is). Let's say it is the foundation is India, so what? Hinduism has turned India into a massive slum, from which people long to escape. (I am saying all of this as an Indian who grew up abroad)
And yet you despise all the monotheistic religions despicable, while you stand behind a bunch of rock and stones and pooping cows which you worship (the funny part is that India is the biggest exporter of beef). While you deify the River Ganges and yet still poop and pollute and throw dead bodies into it.
The Lady who spoke about her grandma in this video is Dr Lakshmi Raghunandan who served in APS college Bangalore as a professor of English .A great and committed teacher,her vocabulary reflects her English language knowledge.I was her colleague and still in service.she obtained her doctorate on the thesis related to her Royal family achievements.very happy to know about you mam,we are all proud of your lineage.culture and dignity always respected. proud of maharani setubai.

Hi thanks ur worthfull works for this documentary... that lyrics i liked more over than visuals.. may i know you please....
Having goosebumps, knowing more about the Travancore history, and ultimately Kochi port was a reality because of this queen. The democratic government is too unscrupulous to negelet this land and ignored the queen's contributions for the richest princely State of India.
We remember and cherish her brief rule of the state of Travancore and of her deep concern for her subjects. My late parents were ardent royalists. Their photos of each adorned our living rooms.
Thanks for introducing H. H. Sethu Lakshmi bhai whose legacy is still either ignored or forgotten. Thank you very much for the attempt. Recently i heard her fame from Manu S Pillai show
My dad told she blessed me when I was small knowing more about her brought happiness what a great lady she was 🙏🏻
Wonderful documentary...This is what happens when you have a ruler with high vision, values and humility .. this reminds me of the famous quote from Dr. APJ “Where there is righteousness in the heart, there is beauty in the character. When there is beauty in the character, there is harmony in the home. When there is harmony in the home, there is order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, there is peace in the world.” - A.P.J.
Travancore rulers had laid solid foundations for the development and well being of the people in general, the results which we can see in today's Kerala.. good education system, good health care system, good panchayat level organisation..all in all a better sate with solid foundation...
I am a 3rd generation Indian from Trinidad, West Indies. This was such an intriguing, revelation. And yes, I feel that this is a much-forgotten epic in the development of a modern India. This story should impel, not only Indians, but people worldwide to strive for excellence, and for the good of humankind. Very touching at the end.
I met a 4th generation Indian from Trinidad in our office newyork 😊
In fact, Southern part of India never had much relation with Northern India. At a time, Kerala had more relation with Foreigners such as Arabs than Northern Indians.
CIRCUMVENTOR Yeah all southern kingdoms had good relations with Foreign countrys even Vijayanagara empire and other kings like tippu and other sultan had good trade relations
CIRCUMVENTOR '' At the time Kerala had more relation with foreigners such as Arabs than Northen Indians '' Very true that is the reason today whole of North Kerala is muslim population and they rule over that part of Kerala.I have been there many a times.Hindus will never get rid of them now. eventually Kerala will be under Muslims and Christians, by the looks of it its already happening or happened .
@@ssimba2785 Please, don't spit communal venom. In past decades, the main mode of long distance travel was through ocean. Many Foreigners such as Jews, Europeans, Arabs etc.. came to Kerala by sea route. On the other hand, Kerala was mainly separated by the Northern part of Indian subcontinent by western ghats. Kerala's 50% of population is contributed by Muslims and Christians. They also immensely contributed to the prosperity of our state. Communal and hatred ideas of Sanghis will bring riots and destructions, it never brings development and peace.
@@ssimba2785 pitty of you, what is the problem for you if Kerala have more Muslims and Christians. We are peacefully coexisting in this state. Your fear is infiltrated by Sangh Pariwar which thrives on communalism, fascism, casteism and intolerance. You are brainwashed by these sanghi leaders. Get rid of this communal mind dear...

Since long I have been waiting for this historical fact.Now as a history lover i can read and understand further history.Thank you very much.
Travencore was one of the few kingdoms in India that was never occupied by Islamic Conquerors. Tippu Sultan tried but failed.
I learnt about Regent Maharani Sethu Lakshmi Bayi through book The Ivory Crown. A wonderful administrator. In your narration you have not mentioned about the role played by the Maharani during the unprecedented floods in Kerala,even before assuming the charge. Another change she made was covering upper body by lower class. Is it possible to have a photograph of Smt Sethu Lakshmi Bayi.
It is sad no one bothered to build a memorial for such a 'Deera Vaniha" who made all these unimaginable changes in a man-ruled world! Namasthe Rani.
Yes,really so sad.
The entire kerala indebted to her. Royal by birth and royal by every acts! Bow my head to this great lady
The queen was a temporary ruler or her ruling period will last until the son of her sister , happened to be the eldest son ; became eligible to rule the state . The queen did her work well as her predecessors and the prince also did his job well according to the demands of the time.
Such a great personality she was. Hatsoff to queen.
the Vaikom Satyagraha, the struggle for the right of lower castes to walk on the streets surrounding the Mahadeva temple at Vaikom in the princely state of Travancore is associated with Gandhi.it was not a voluntarily grant from the side of travancore rulers. Gandhi came to vaikom, had received a registered mail, on the dais, from the orthodox Brahmins taking exception to his views on untouchability. There were hectic parleys as he met Sri Narayana Guru, the Maharani Regent, the Diwan, the police commissioner, the satyagrahis, representatives of Ezhavas and Pulayas, and the recalcitrant orthodox Brahmins. An initially aggressive Travancore state administration later mellowed down. After being quiet in the beginning, the orthodox Brahmins had launched a counter agitation. The marathon meeting was held at Idanthuruthil Devan Neelakandan Namboothiri’s home. To this day, oral stories circulate about the meeting. According to one apocryphal version, considering that Gandhi had crossed the seas and mingled with Ezhavas, he had to stand at the threshold of the Namboodiri home. That temple streets were out of bounds for lower castes was divine punishment for sins committed in past lives, the Brahmins contended. Gandhi made three proposals. The first was to hold a referendum among all adults in either Vaikom or in Travancore. The second was mediation.The third was that the orthodox should produce a scriptural text that authorised the practice. The orthodox accepted the third proposal and produced a text called Sankara Smriti in their defence. Gandhi doubted the authenticity of the text but promised to get back after consulting experts in the matter. Vallathol Narayana Menon confirmed that it was not reliable.The interaction with officials blunted the state suppression of the Satyagraha. As an outcome of Gandhi’s visit, the Satyagraha, rather than being directed against the state, sharpened into a struggle against social orthodoxy. Though it was formally withdrawn only eight months later.

Wow ....u need real class to give away your palace your home....and move away to a different land ☺ .
Can anybody do it in this times

Here after Ivory Throne. Thanks to Manu S Pillai for that wonderful book.
Very inspiring history o f a great lady who was way ahead of her time
The people who contributed the most to Kerala, are the ones to whom Keralites have no gratitude. It is a longstanding trend that has pervaded Kerala's political mind. Anything or any person of value, will be cut down to size.
The downfall of the Travancore Royal Family started when they were late to the game in investing and acquiring modern businesses like plantations, commercial banks, and manufacturing interests. By the time the royals thought about these things in the late 40s, the markets had already been taken over by the British and the Syrian Christians. In an ideal world, the royals should have become the largest plantation owners in Kerala, but they're far from it. There are private entities who own more land in Kerala today, than all the royals of Travancore combined.
Krishnan Unni Madathil Other communities were NOT spared. Don’t speak bullshit. Everybody owned plantations were spared. Now, xtians were hardworkers and not hesitant to work on farms whereas most upper caste Hindus weren’t. Hence, they had less plantations.
Extra decent lady. brilliant standard lady
Forefather's of Travancore Suriyani's kept photos these royals at their home.
Great ruler....Elegant lady.!!!
Sunny Joseph looks classy alle
This is a princess. Niece of maharaja CHITHIRA thirunal. She is not a ruler. Ruler WAS HH R ANI SETHU LAKSHMI BAI. HER REIGN 1924- 1931
Why isn’t a memorial built for such a great soul ?? How can this be done ?
My respect to Great Queen Sethu Lakshmi Bhai, Queen of United States of Travancore and Cochin.
Impressed with no "doctrine of lapse" was imposed on Travancore by the British.
United States of Travancore and Cochi.
I feel, their is a need for Magna Carta within Hindu religion( the lover caste and higher caste prejudices must end. No more priest or clergical possessiveness and supremacy in any of the religions) to preserve the goodness of humanity, Before ending caste based reservation.
Indra Gandhi ji had abolished Royal pension scheme due to Bangladesh redemption war.
Sometimes I feels British shouldn't have abandoned Kingdom of Travancore and Cochin this extent.
Too much information.....History is always interesting.....more u immerse yourself into it, u never feel like getting out.....!! Would take decades to know atleast a bit of history......!!
No Indira did it to break the back of the swatantra party which had many backers among erstwhile royalists
Let us remember the fact today that these Kings and ,queens have been wrongly received in independent India.Due to the indifferent attitude and superimposed ideology in the post independence scenario these founders of India have merely been viwed as tyrannous and usurpers of power.She is one of the many examples with whom the reletionship of the subjects to state was based on respect and duty to enrichment.

A touching story of a great ruler who was also a good administrator. It's really heart touching to know that she had to leave everything and to move out of Travancore .

Too much progress in a few years ! Excellent ruler❤
sometimes I wonder how different our society would be if we had leaders with such poise and vision.
Mahatma Gandhi praised her simplicity without costly dress and jewels and behaviour.Gandhiji pleaded with her to pass order for temple entry; but she refused saying that soon Chitra Thirunal will take over and let him do it.But she has been made a villain
So sad..... that there is no any memorial in her name in trivandrum.

They have never done anything for the common people of Kerala. If they have done something, then it's for their own use or their own people or the aristocrat class who worked for them. They never considered the majority of the Kerala population (80% of kerala population) as humans. They always thought that they are untouchables never allowed them even in the roads that these people use. Even after "Gandhi Ji" came in person to her palace and requested the Queen for allowing Dalits and other backward casts to be allowed in the Temple, she denied. She famously said, "I am just a care taker. When the King (who was a kid at that time) grows up, we will see" if she really cared for the common people of the Kerala, then she should have allowed it on that same day at-least. Yes, eventually it happened, thats not because of their mercy. It's after the hard fought Sathyagragas of the common people. These are the same royal people who collected breast taxes according to the breast size of the low caste women in order to cover their breasts. How disgusting. They looted the poor people by collecting inhuman Taxes. While the common poor people worked in paddy fields and other menial jobs and paid the taxes, these people built palaces and lived as kings and queens with the looted money. Its utter waste to glorify these useless rulers.
Thanks for this updates.
Don't misinterpret with your tiny knowledge.. how do you know they haven't dont anything for travancore people??
What you are talking. That was a society formed and concreted centuries before her time. Even an emperor was a small pawn in that society. But her level she has done many things for the oppressed. Many kings were like that. Ayyan Kali, Kumaran Asan Tk Madhavan etc were the members of Sree mollam sabha. An institution like our current assembly. Actually they were better than many of the wealthy dalith leaders.
Educate ur self kid
Biju Athulya Check what was the condition of lower castes under their rule.
The great travancore !!!!!
So unfortunate that there isn't a memorial of Smt Maharani Sethu Lakshmi Bai thampuratti!! Why Chitira thirunal didn't make one ? He could easily build one,as he was the Raja pramukhan!! His mother Amma Maharani Sethu Parwati Bai wouldn't have agreed to build one. Obviously 😑
I am disappointed with only one aspect of Sethu Lakshmi Bai. Thampuratti had stopped "Deva" dasi nritam. But it was stopped considering as Cheap or bad during the time of Swati Thirunal....with the help of Thanjavur brothers!!He rejuvenated and gave back a respectful status to the danceform. Swati Thirunal himself wrote lots of padams. Tanjavur brothers had arranged classical dances for these padams!! Swati Thirunal gave patronage to art,music& dance forms!! This danceform later on ,with the help of Vallathol, became known as Mohinyattam.
Sethu Lakshmi Bai (Sethu Parvathi Bai too)had lot of Western influences. The move of degrading this dance form and banning this danceform is an example of that mindset.
Even Kerala Mural paintings were not promoted properly during that period. even though Raja Ravi Varma was a great mural artist, he was attracted to western paintings.
Thank God, after 100 odd years, we have realised the greatness of this artform and, artists started exploring the details ,nuances & uniqueness of this artform. Now a days by using natural colours, Kerala mural artists have resurrected the ancient art form.
The British ruling broke the important link,which connects us to the ancient art& dance forms. ...but they couldn't destroy it.
Gradually we are realising our traditional artforms, which are very much connected to nature!!
The colours, our ancestors used for mural art were eco-friendly and environment friendly. But we were not aware of it and started using acrylic,which are hazardous chemicals!!
Instead of learning our ancient scriptures, British / English learning was given to them( the Thiruvithamkur royals).. because British thought that India will be their for ever!!
The real patriot was Pazhassi Raja. He fought against British till his death!!
Even now Kerala hasn't build a grand memoriam for the great King!!
She has a motherly aura.
What a touching story
History says the vast masses of Hindus who were oppressed by the Hindu kingdom, struggled and revolted against it for years. Many had to even make supreme sacrifices to attain their inalienable right of worship of their Deity Divine at the temples maintained by the kingdom. Now the granddaughter remorselessly giving credit to the Maharani as if it was her gratuitous favour to those who were kept oppressed for centuries by her and her kind! What a joke!!
@@deleted963 These are proselytising invaders narratives. The term Varna belongs to the holy scriptures of Sanatana Dharma, eternal faith of the Bhuva. There's no term as avarna which is merely a concoction of the scheming proselytisers.

How the British royal family is to England, so is the Travancore dynasty to Kerala....
,
This might not be true. Travancore Royal family was connected to Travancore Kingdom and had no jurisdiction or rights over South Malabar or North Malabar. Or over Cochin kingdom.
Moreover, there is nothing similar to the Monarchy of England.
Travancore State Manual written V Nagam Iyya is a very good book for reference regarding Travancore. It can be downloaded from archive org.
We lack understanding of our History and the right narrative . Most often misunderstood infact..
@@VED036 Travancore kings had rights over only Travancore, they were never bothered about Malabar.
@@VED036 royal family of Travancore is still widely respected whether you like it or not and they were popular in Travancore because of their just rule.
