Massacre
The Vellaloor massacre refers to the killing of nearly 5000 people of the Kallar clan at the Vellalore village near Melur Taluk in what is now the Madurai District in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The massacre was ordered by the Nawab of the Carnatic to a "Captain Rumley" in charge of his army. The murder of the Indigenous people occurred, as they refused to pay taxes to the Nawab.
