Ahmadullah Shah fought against the British in the battle of Chinhat in the course of the 1857 Revolt.

Ahmadullah Shah, also known as the Maulvi of Faizabad, was a prominent leader of the Indian Rebellion of 1857. He led the rebel forces in the Battle of Chinhat (June 30, 1857) near Lucknow, inflicting a heavy defeat on the British forces led by Sir Henry Lawrence, before the British retreated into the Lucknow Residency.

Shah Mal was a rebel leader who organized villagers in the area around Baraut in the North-Western Provinces. Mangal Pandey was a sepoy whose actions in Barrackpore in March 1857 are often considered the spark that ignited the Mutiny, but he was executed early in the revolt and was not involved in Chinhat. Kunwar Singh was a prominent rebel leader from Jagdishpur, Bihar, who led the revolt in his region.
