Tirot Sing
Tirot Sing (1802–1835) was a Khasi chief of Nongkhlaw in the hills of present-day Meghalaya, India. When the British began building a road through his territory to link the Brahmaputra and Surma valleys, he led an uprising in 1829 that grew into a four-year war. Captured in 1833, he died in British custody in Dhaka in 1835.
