Syed Mīr Nisār Alī, better known as Titumir, was a Bengali freedom fighter who developed a strand of Muslim nationalism coupled with agrarian and political consciousness. He is famed for having built a large bamboo fort to resist the British, which passed onto Bengali folk legend. Titumir died on 19 November 1831 at Narikelbaria.
