Shah Mal  
 Shah Mal lived in a large village in pargana Barout in Uttar 
Pradesh. He belonged to a clan of Jat cultivators whose kinship 
ties extended over chaurasee des (eighty-four villages). The lands 
in the region were irrigated and fertile, with rich dark loam soil. 
Many of the villagers were prosperous and saw the British land 
revenue system as oppressive : the revenue demand was high and 
its collection inflexible. Consequently cultivators were losing land 
to outsiders, to traders and moneylenders who were coming into 
the area.  
 Shah Mal mobilised the headmen and cultivators of chaurasee des, 
moving at night from village to village, urging people to rebel 
against the British. As in many other places, the revolt against the 
British turned into general rebellion against all signs of oppression 
and injustice. Cultivators left their fields and plundered the houses 
of moneylenders and traders. Displaced proprietors took possession 
buildings, destroyed the bridge over the river, and dug up metalled 
roads  partly to prevent government forces from coming into the 
area, and partly because bridges and roads were seen as symbols of 
British rule. They sent supplies to the sepoys who had mutinied in 
Delhi and stopped all official communication between British 
headquarters and Meerut. Locally acknowledged as the Raja, Shah 
Mal took over the bungalow of an English officer, turned it into a 
also set up an amazingly effective network of intelligence. For a 
period the people of the area felt that firangi raj was over, and 
their raj had come.  
 Shah Mal was killed in battle in July 1857.
