Option 2 : 1, 2 and 3

The correct answer is 1, 2 and 3.

The Faqir-Sanyasi Resistance movement was organized and led by Majnu shah.
From 1763 onwards, the Sanyasi Revolt or uprising had engulfed the area of Bengal (including modern Bangladesh), Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh.
He was a Sufi saint of the Madaria sect. He succeeded Shah Sultan Hasan Suriya Burhana to the leadership of the Bihar-based Madaria Sufi order in the mid-eighteenth century.
Sanyasi-faqir rebellion commenced in the mid-1760s.
The rebellion started from 1750 onwards but took a violent turn since 1773 when Warren Hastings assumed the governor-Generalship of Bengal and Bihar.
Chirag Ali, Devi Chaudhurani, and Bhawani Pathak were also participating in this revolt.

Anandamath, written by India’s first modern novelist Bankim Chandra Chatterjee is the best reminder of the Sanyasi and Faqir Rebellion.
