Complete answer:
'Pracheena Malayalam' is the largest book written by Chattampi Swamikal of Kerala. There was a custom that Shudra should not learn veda and that existed in Kerala and all over India. It is logically challenged by his work 'Padadhikari Niroopanam'. He established supporting evidence the Shudra and other lower castes also have the right to knowledge. He launched various religious and cultural Revolutions and attempted to revive the purity of Vedic culture and make it Universal. According to him the tools to distinguish between Dharma adharma are Vedas and Vedic knowledge is essential for attaining Moksha and every human being has a right to acquire that knowledge. It was the first work in Malayalam which was done by non Brahmins. It questioned which work practiced by priestly classes and kept away the knowledge from the whole world of all the customs rules norms related to social economic and administrative matters for the authority on religious text this book goes beyond the barriers of religion.
