Solution:

Dr.Palpu was born in Thiruvananthapuram.He founded the Greater ezhava association.
Dr. Palpu was irritated by this humiliating reply from the authorities, he frequently visited the state to organise the backward people to protest against the callousness of the rulers. He realised that organised protest was the only way to put an end to the inhuman discretions that the government practised against the majority of its own people. He soon formed the Ezhava Maha Sabha (Greater Ezhava Association) and more than 300 people attended its first meeting held at Thiruvananthapuram. The meeting decided to submit a mass petition to the government signed by ten thousand Ezhavas demanding the abolition of the discrimination against them.
