The Koonan kurish Oath (Leaning Cross Oath) of 1653 is the first recorded mass revolt against the Western colonialism in history. This heroic declaration of independence by the Malankara Christians (also known as Malankara Nazrani’s) was to free itself from the imposition of Western supremacy in matters concerning the Church and its practices.
