The titled surname Channar is not in the article — Preceding unsigned comment added by Channar12 (talk • contribs) 02:12, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Confusion in lead

The lead says 'The Malabar Ezhava group have claimed higher ranking in hindu caste system than do the others.'

This gives impression that the comparison is between Ezhava and other castes of Kerala.

But the source in sentence says this comparison is between the various Ezhava groups.

So the lead sentence should be, 'The Malabar Ezhava group has claimed a higher ranking in the Hindu caste system than the other Ezhava groups.' FloridaFlower (talk) 08:31, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
