Wikipedia description:
Syed Mir Nisar Ali (27 January 1782 – 19 November 1831), better known as Titumir, was a Bengali Muslim Revolutionary in British India who developed a strand of Islamic revivalism, sometimes also for Bengali nationalism coupled with agrarian and political consciousness. He is famed for having built a large bamboo fort to resist the British, which passed into Bengali Muslim folk legend.
