History
On 12 June 1899 it was Muthukrishnaperi's turn to witness a serious disturbance, after several villages in the area had been the subject of dacoities and rioting. A local Village Magistrate was later charged with instigating the action against Muthukrishnaperi's Shanar residents, whose homes were set on fire and looted. About 300 persons were involved. Muthukrishnaperi along with other local villages in Tenkasi Taluk was made the subject of a temporary police presence until the disturbances were quelled. The Village Magistrate was sentenced to six years' "rigorous imprisonment".[1]
