Among the farmers in the Champaran region, Sheik Gulab was a prominent figure. He lived in the village of Chand Barwah, which was under the Sathi or Sati police station's jurisdiction in Bihar. Sheik Raktun, his father, was a wealthy landlord. Sheik Gulab was a bright, bold man who never put up with injustice, despite having little formal education. It was only natural that Sheik Gulab raised the alarm about British rule, coming from a family that opposed the hegemony and evil deeds of the foreign rulers and their goons. Sheik Gulab entered the conflict in 1905 to fight for justice for the farmers because he could not stand to see the English owners of the indigo plantations and dye factories exploiting the farmers of Champaran. In the beginning, he collaborated with Sheik Munvar from his hometown to organize the farmers against the English proprietors. Leaders from nearby villages, including Babu Seethal Ray, Hafiz Mohammed Saani (1888–1951), Hafizuddin Mohammed Ansari (1831–1961), and Jagan Lal, joined them at first. Later, they teamed up with revolutionary writer Pir Muhammad Munis Ansari (1882–1949). Pir Munis's intellectual assistance gave the uprising spearheaded by the farmer leaders new impetus. During that era, the homes of Sheik Gulab, Babu Seetal Ray, Hafiz Deen Muhammad, Radhemal, and Pir Muha-mmad Munis served as covert meeting spots for conversations about farmer agitation and strategy formulation.
