Which one of the following revolts was made famous by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee in his novel Anand Math?

Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay’s novel Anandamath is explicitly based on the Sanyasi (sannyasi) Rebellion of late 18th-century Bengal. Sources note that Anandamath is a semi‑historical novel inspired by the Sanyasi revolt and that Bankim drew on the uprisings of wandering ascetics and fakirs to construct the novel’s setting and themes [1]. The novel famously contains the song 'Vande Mātaram' and helped popularize the memory of these anti‑colonial resistances; historians and literary accounts link Anandamath directly to the Sanyasi/Fakir insurgencies that arose after the 1770 famine and subsequent British revenue measures [2]. Therefore, the revolt made famous by Anandamath is the Sanyasi rebellion.
