'''Guntur famine''' also known as known locally as ''Dokkala Karuvu'' (only ribs are seen without any flesh) or ''Nandana karuvu'', ''pedda karuvu'', ''Dhatu karuvu'', ''Valasa Karuvu'', ''Musti karuvu'', ''Dobba Karuvu''. This has occurred in [[Madras Presidency]] during 1832–1833 followed crop failure as well as excessive and uncertain levels of taxation on peasants by British [[East India Company]].<ref name="pp1">{{cite web |title=Were Indian Famines 'Natural' Or 'Manmade'? - LSE |url=https://www.lse.ac.uk/Economic-History/Assets/Documents/WorkingPapers/Economic-History/2016/WP243.pdf |access-date=16 December 2020}}</ref><br />
