Jai bheem Akhilesh, One very good source to begin your search is with the following book which is a very good over-view book(*People of India, National Series Vol. II: The Scheduled Castes/K.S. Singh.* Revised edition. 1999, 1375 p., $66. ISBN 019564822-6.) There is an entry on Malas in this book. Not only that, nearly all SC communities in the country are given brief treatment in this huge book. Best, Chittibabu
