Recently came across an article on "Freedom Movement in Kerala" at a site by the Press Information Bureau, Govt of India. Among other things Vaikom Satyagraha is also mentioned. [http://pib.nic.in/feature/feyr98/fe0798/PIBF0707981.html] It reads as:

"Historic Vaikom Satyagraha, which attracted all India attention was started on March 30, 1924. The Satyagraha was started to establish the right for all people to walk through the temple roads. Leaders like K.P. Kesava Menon and T.K. Madhavan led the agitation.

A 'Savarna Jatha' proceeded to Trivandrum and presented a mass petition to the Regent Maharani of Travancore requesting her to remove ban and give freedom to all people to walk through the Vaikom temple roads and to put an end to the practice of untouchability in the State. Gandhiji held discussions with the authorities of Travancore and later had correspondence with them. When Satyagraha entered the twentieth month, the temple roads, except the one on the eastern side, were opened to all people and the Vaikom Satyagraha ended."
