Fakir-Sannyasi Resistance Information
Fakir-Sannyasi Resistance an armed resistance of the combined body of Muslim fakirs (sufis) and Hindu sannyasis (yogis) against the dominance of the English East India Company in Bengal. This resistance began in 1760 and continued for more than four decades. The most striking point in this prolonged resistance of the mendicants is the cause behind the movement. The reason is still left obscure. It seems that the regulations of the East India Company seriously disturbed the ways of life of the Muslim fakirs and Hindu sannyasis thereby pushing them to make common cause and to take resort to armed resistance. Both the groups of mendicants lived on alms provided by their followers mostly in the villages. The Company rulers, who little understood the religious institutions of the country, took their alms collection drive for unauthorised impositions on the village people. The government thus issued decrees banning collection of alms by the organised groups like the fakirs and sannyasis. In response, they started a resistance movement against the Company rulers. The resistance movement got ready support from the peasantry for their religious attachment to the mendicants and also having been hard pressed under the new land revenue policy of the Company government.
The resisting fakirs belonged to the Madaria tarika, a sufi sect which flourished in Bengal under the leadership of Shah Sultan Hasan Suriya Burhana in the second half of the seventeenth century. The sannyasis were the Vedantic Hindu yogis belonging to the Giri and Puri groups of ek-dandi sannyasism. Both the fakirs and sannyasis were armed bands living in khankas and akhdas respectively. In rituals and practices there was good deal of affinity between the sufi fakirs and yogi sannyasis and that contributed to their common alliance against the alien rule.
The Fakir-Sannyasi Resistance movement was organised and led by majnu shah, a sufi saint of Madaria sect. He succeeded Shah Sultan Hasan Suriya Burhana to the leadership of the Bihar based Madaria sufi order in the mid-eighteenth century. He had his lieutenants in the persons of the sufis like Musa Shah, Cherag Ali Shah, Paragal Shah, Sobhan Shah, Karim Shah etc. Bhabani Pathak, a Bhojpuri Brahmin, who had discourse with Majnu Shah and also had communication with a petty zamindar Devi Chaudhurani, led the sannyasi rebels.
The Fakir resistance began in nebulous form in 1760 and gathered momentum in 1763. Their main target was the Company kuthi, revenue kacharis of zamindars loyal to the Company rulers, and the houses of their officials. The rebels used swords, spear and lances, gun, fire throwing device, hawai and even revolving cannons.
Among the fakirs only Majnu Shah and some of his lieutenants used horse while moving from one strategic place to another. Camels were used for carrying provisions and ammunitions. Their operations were mainly of guerilla nature. In most cases they attacked the Company personnel and their establishments in surprise. In regular operations and in specific battle there was often assemblage of five to six thousand fakir-sannyasis. The number of fakirs and sannyasis rose to around fifty thousand or more in 1770s. The rebels had their intelligence agents in the persons of the villagers who earlier transpired to them the movement of the Company troops.
Fakir Majnu Shah
The rebels attacked the commercial kuthi of the Company at Bakerganj (1763) and kept the factory chief Calley confined for some days, and plundered the kuthi. In the same year they surprised Dhaka kuthi while its English supervisor Ralph Lester evacuated. However, Captain Grant subsequently recovered the factory. The same year, the rebels attacked Company kuthi at Rampur Boalia in Rajshahi, captured the factory chief Bennette who was sent to Patna as captive, where he was killed.
By 1767 the attack of the rebels intensified in Rangpur, Rajshahi, Kuch Bihar, Jalpaiguri and Comilla. To check the activities of the rebels in North Bengal an English army was sent to Rangpur in 1767 under Captain De Mackenzee. Meanwhile the rebels defeated an English contingent sent by Barwel, the Resident of Maldah, under the command of Myrtle who was killed by the rebels. At the approach of Captain De Mackenze with his army the rebels retracted towards Nepal. During 1768-70 fakir-sannyasi raids mainly continued in Saran (Bihar), Benares, Purnia, Rangpur, Dinajpur, Rajshahi, Comilla and Chittagong districts.
An army under Feltham suddenly attacked the fakir-sannyasis in 1771 on way to Ghoraghat and Govindganj in Rangpur, where they sustained a defeat and were dispersed. Majnu Shah proceeded towards Mahasthan with more than a hundred wounded followers. In 1772 Majnu Shah raided the establishments of the Company in the Rangpur, Rajshahi and Bogra districts. On one occasion, he along with hundreds of armed followers raided the revenue office of the Company at Rajshahi, captured the accumulated fund and kept the kachari under his control. The rebels conducted extensive raids in Purnia, Burdwan, Kumarkhali, Jessore, Mymensingh, Sylhet, Dhaka, Midnapore, Birbhum, Rangpur, Dinajpur, Bogra, Jalpaiguri in 1773.
Fakir-Sannyasi raids got intensified in 1776 in the districts of Bogra, Rajshahi, Dinajpur and Chittagong. During the period between 1777 and 1781 the fakir-sannyasi raids mainly continued in Bogra, Rajshahi, Rangpur, Chittagong, Sylhet and Mymensingh areas. The activities of the rebels took a serious turn in Alapsingh pargana of Mymensingh in 1782. After a severe battle at Pukhuria Majnu Shah receded into the Madhupur jungle with his followers. In 1785 he proceeded towards Mahasthangarh and was defeated in a battle. In the following year, Majnu Shah planned simultaneous attack in eastern Bengal under himself and in North Bengal area under his lieutenant Musa Shah. In a battle against the Company army under Lieutenant Brenan in Kaleswar area (8 December 1786) Majnu Shah lost a large number of his followers, and some of his wounded followers were carried to Mewat. After 1786 Majnu Shah is not seen to lead any expedition. It appears that he himself was wounded in the battle at Kaleswar and died on 26 January 1788.
After the death of Majnu Shah his able lieutenants like Musa Shah, Cherag Ali Shah, Paragal Shah, Sobhan Shah, Madar Baksh, Jari Shah, Karim Shah, Kripanath, Rowshan Shah, Anup Narayan and Sri Nibash continued the revolt till the closing of the year 1800 and even upto 1812 AD. But after the death of Majnu Shah the movement was gradually losing its direction and dynamics. By the late 1790s, the revolt began to be subsided only to wither away in the form of stray resistance in the subsequent decade. [Muazzam Hussain Khan]
History Of Jor-bangla
Jor-bangla, also called yorubangala, is a style of temple architecture that arose in Bengal. The style involves two structures that resemble the traditional village huts of the region, one that serves as a porch, in front of the other that serves as a shrine. Each structure has a roof of the ek-bangla (or do-chala) style, with two curved segments that meet at a curved ridge.
- Gopinath Jor-Bangla is a Hindu temple located 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) south of Pabna town in Bangladesh. There is no reliable information about the date when it was built, possibly in the 19th century. It is one of the major archaeological attractions of the Pabna District.
- Bishnupur Jor-Bangla temple, built 1655 by King Raghunath Singha Dev. It is richly ornamented with terracotta carvings. The roof has the classic chala style of Bengal architecture.
Historical Life Of Maulvi Tamizuddin Khan
Khan, Tamizuddin (1889-1963) politician, a noted minister of undivided Bengal, president of Pakistan Constituent Assembly and Speaker of the Pakistan National Assembly. Born in 1889 in a humble peasant family of Faridpur, the early life of Tamizuddin Khan reveals interesting insights in the odyssey of budding Muslims to carve out a place under limited opportunities under the colonial regime. His father's limited income from land was not enough to support his education. Tamizuddin had to find, like many Muslim students of the time, a jagir to prosecute his studies and later had to get married into a rich family to support his college education in Calcutta.
Tamizuddin Khan obtained an MA degree in English in 1913 and a law degree in 1915 and settled for legal profession in Faridpur. He took part in politics and was elected Vice-Chairman of Faridpur Municipality. He joined the indian national congress, also became Secretary of the Anjuman-i-Islamia and subsequently joined the muslim league. He participated in the Khilafat and non-cooperation movements and suffered imprisonment. In 1926 he was disappointed at his failure in the municipal election.
At the outbreak of Hindu-Muslim riots in various parts of India he got disillusioned with nationalist politics and devotef exclusively to Muslim politics.
Since 1920's the British government started extending franchise and include the upper segment of the peasantry into electoral politics. This made possible for Tamizuddin, having strong rural base, to come to the cynosure of all-Bengal politics. In 1926 he got elected to the Bengal Legislative Assembly from Faridpur defeating a Congressite Muslim landlord.
ak fazlul huq floated the krishak praja party in 1936. Tamizuddin Khan got elected from Faridpur under Muslim League ticket defeating his rival Congress candidate Humayun Kabir. Not being taken in the League - Praja Party coalition ministry he formed a new party called Independent Praja Samiti and clandestinely started negotiation with sarat bose, the leader of the Congress in the Bengal legislature. By mid June 1938 the Congress tabled a no-confidence motion against the ministry on the question of Bengal Tenancy Amendment Bill and Tamizuddin Khan, along with many disgruntled Praja leaders, backed the motion. However, the motion was defeated and Huq ministry survived. Thereafter Fazlul Huq decided to buy his position inviting Tamizuddin Khan in the cabinet. Initially he was given the portfolio of Medicine and Public Health, later, the ministry of Agriculture and Industries.
By 1941 a cleavage developed between Fazlul Huq and the Muslim League. Huq formed his second coalition ministry with shyama prasad mukherjI, the Hindu Mahasabha leader. Tamizuddin Khan joined the opposition in the Legislative Assembly with his other Muslim League colleagues.
In 1943, at the fall of Huq ministry a new coalition Ministry was formed under khwaja nazimuddin with the support of Independent Hindus and Europeans. Tamizuddin Khan became minister for education. In 1945, however, the government was defeated in a vote on a cut motion, and the Assembly was consequently dissolved.
Meanwhile the Muslim League made the demand for Pakistan its main issue. In the election of 1945 Tamizuddin was elected to the Central Assembly from Dhaka-Mymensingh constituency defeating abdul halim ghaznavi of Tangail. He was elected a member of the Pakistan Constituent Assembly. Later he was elected Deputy President of the Assembly with mohammed ali jinnah
Tamizuddin Khan challenged the action of Ghulam Mohammad when he dissolved the Constituent Assembly in 1954; filed in the Sind Court a case entitled 'Tamizuddin Khan versus Federation of Pakistan' and won it. However, on appeal Federal Court dismissed the judgement of the Sind Court on the ground of 'state necessity', a dubious judgement.
Tamizuddin Khan, for some time, kept aloof from politics. He came back to active politics again and was elected an MNA under the 1962 constitution. He was elected the Speaker of the Pakistan National Assembly, the position he held till his death on 19 August 1963. [Manzur Ahsan]

Dense Fog Disrupts Ferry Services On Kawrakandi, Daulatdia Routes
Dense fog forced nine ferries left from both ghats to anchor in the middle of
the river causing about 200 vehicles to spend the night in the middle of the river
Ferry services on the Daulatdia-Paturia and Shimulia-Kawrakandi routes came to a halt yesterday for several hours because of dense fog.
The ferry services between the Shimulia-Kawrakandi route along the Padma River resumed after five hours, causing tailback on both sides of the river, our Munshiganj correspondent reported.
Hundreds of vehicles, including perishable goods-laden truck, waited in long queues in the morning.
Assistant Manager of Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Corporation (BIWTC) in charge of Shimulia pontoon Shekhar Chandra Roy said they had been compelled to suspend the ferry services around 4am due to thick fog.
“We started ferry services around 9am,” he said.
Dense fog forced nine ferries left from both ghats to anchor in the middle of the river causing about 1,000 passengers and 200 vehicles to spend the night in the middle of the river.
“About 200 hundred vehicles got stuck on both sides because of the disruption, creating immense suffering to the commuters,” he added.
Meanwhile, ferry services on the Daulatdia-Paturia route along the Padma River resumed in the morning after a four-hour disruption for thick fog, reports UNB.
Mahiuddin Rasel, manager of Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Corporation (BIWTC) at Aricha, said the ferry services as well as the plying of other water vessels came to a halt at 4am due to blurred visibility caused by dense fog.
Two ferries with a large number of vehicles and passengers were kept anchored at Daulatdia while three were at Paturia.
Eleven ferries stood in the middle of the Padma river since 4am.
Passengers and a good number of vehicles were waiting to cross on either side of the river.
Ferry services on the important route resumed around 8am as fog started disappearing after sunrise.
