Hyderabad Massacres (original) (raw)
The Hyderabad Massacres of 1948 refers to the mass killings of Hyderabadi Muslim civilians that took place in the aftermath of the Indian annexation of Hyderabad (Operation Polo).

According to the Sunderlal Committee report, report produced by the government of India, the civillian death toll was between 27,000 to 40,000. The majority of the victims were Hyderabadi Muslims, followed by Dalits, in the Marathwada regions of the state, while Hindus and Muslims alike were massacred in Telangana, with the establishment of detention camps and forced expulsions by the Indian military.
