Answer:

Mir Nisar Ali, also known as Titumir, was successful in bringing the Wahabi movement to Bengal. Titumir and his supporters were the first to take up arms against the Pura zamindars, who had imposed a punishing levy on the Wahabis. Under Titumir's leadership, an armed insurrection against the repressive zamindars erupted.

Explanation:

  • Because Titumir's insurrection had taken on an anti-government tone, the British used the military to put down the insurgents.
  • The British were particularly alarmed by the resistance to their land reforms (in 1793). Titumir, on the other hand, hurriedly constructed a castle out of bamboo and mud with his 600 followers.
  • This was the well-known Banser Kella (bamboo stronghold) built in Narkelberia, about 10 kilometres from Baduria (in present Basirhat of the district of North 24 Parganas,West Bengal).
  • The 'Barasat Uprising' of 1831 was named after the revolt raised by Titumir and his comrades, as well as the resistance they offered to British troops from the bamboo castle.
  • Because Narkelberia was within the administrative jurisdiction of the sub-division of Barasat at the time, the insurrection was known as the Barasat Uprising.
