Muḥsin ad-Dīn Aḥmad (1819–1862), better known by his nickname Dudu Miyān, was a leader of the Faraizi Movement in Bengal.
Although he never achieved the levels of scholarship attained by his father, he quickly proved himself to be a powerful leader of the peasant movements against colonial indigo planters and wealthy landlords.
[1] After the death of Shariatullah, Miyan led the movement to a more radical, agrarian character and was able to create an effective organizational structure.
In 1838, 1844, 1847 he was arrested several times but released because he became so popular irrespective of religion with the peasantry that in those cases, courts seldom found a witness against him.
[4] At the time of the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the British government arrested him as precaution and kept him in the Alipore Jail, Kolkata.
