Answer:

The narrator does not want to shoot the elephant, but he thinks he should due to the crowd expecting him to do it.

Explanation:

He actually states that he was hated by large numbers of people. He thought that he was important but they did not like him. He was full of discomfort and disgust at how the British colonial system worked.

I am going to go with the fact that being considered important does not necessarily lead to good things.
