Who among the following was associated with the Farazi Movement in Bengal during the 19th century?
Dadu Mian
The Farazi Movement was a socio-religious reform movement among Muslim peasants of eastern Bengal, founded by Haji Shariatullah in the early 19th century.
After Haji Shariatullah, the movement was led and transformed into an organised, politically assertive peasant movement by his son Dudu Miyan (Dadu Mian), who mobilised the Faraizis against oppressive zamindars and indigo planters.
Birsa Munda led the Munda (Ulgulan) tribal revolt in Chotanagpur; U Kiang Nongbah led a Khasi uprising in Meghalaya; Majnu Shah was associated with the Fakir rebellion — none belonged to the Farazi Movement.
Hence, Dadu Mian was associated with the Farazi Movement in Bengal.
