Proud #Shudras
Inscription from 1345 CE of Shudra King Vema Reddy who takes pride in being a Shudra and having been born out of the feet of Vishnu.
He even says he restored the agraharas of the Brahmanas after they had been taken away by the Mμslim kings.

King Singa Nayaka takes pride in saying that the Shudras were born from the feet of Ishvara and their duty was to serve the other 3 varnas.
He says that Shudras were born along with the Ganga which springs from Vishnu's feet.
They are ever attached to their duties and pure.
