In kerala, the Nairs were founders of the Dravidianist Justice Party
However, they could not sustain anti-brahminism because they were related to the Nambudhiris brahmins,
who had a hypergamous sambandam with Nair women
Nairs over the centuries due to periodic infusion of Nambudhiri genes had become
visually identical to Nambudiris
This meant brahmins in kerala could not be visually targeted as in TN
Next, when the state of kerala was formed,
The Nairs suddenly found themselves classified as upper caste and had to give quota to Ezhava
Karma for their justice party activities
