| | Mala - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | But few malas have taken to Buddhism in Andhra pradesh. |  | | Curiously the Malas who are the subject of senseless discrimination from the upper castes, are also culprits of the same mean activity. |  | | Unfortunately the Malas look down on the Madigas and traditionally had no use for them, and there is a history of clashes with the Madigas, who are another large SC community of south India. |
