Revolt in Malayalam
A revolt is വിപ്ലവം (viplavam), the word Kerala uses for an organised rising against authority. It doubles as the word for revolution, which is why it carries political weight that no other entry here has.

- ലഹളകൂട്ടുക (lahalakoottuka) — Riot, revolt, quarrel (between groups).
- ലഹള (lahala) — Riot, tumult, mutiny, revolt, conflict.
lahala is closer to a riot or a brawl and lahalakoottuka is the verb phrase for starting one, so neither reaches the sense of a planned uprising.
