who is known as the father of indian unrest?
bal gangadhar tilak
bal gangadhar tilak was a nationalist leader from the central indian province of maharashtra. he has been widely acclaimed the "father of indian unrest" who used the press and hindu occasions like ganesh chaturthi and symbols like the cow to create unrest against the british administration in india. tilak joined the indian national congress in 1890. under the influence of such leaders, the political discourse of the congress moved from polite accusation that imperial rule was "un-british" to the forthright claim of tilak that "swaraj is my birthright and i will have it".

historians have not determined if the yamasee were leaders in fomenting indian unrest and plans for war. the ochese creeks (later known as the lower creeks) may have been more instrumental in gaining support for war. each of the indian tribes that joined in the war had its own reasons, as complicated and deeply rooted in the past as that of the yamasee. although the tribes did not act in carefully planned coordination, the unrest increased, and intertribal communication began about the possibility of war. by early 1715 rumors of growing indian support for war was troubling enough that some friendly indians warned colonists of the danger. they suggested the ochese creek were the instigators.
