Answers
Answer:
1.
The Indian soldiers thought that this was a deliberate attempt by the British to dishonour their religion. Therefore, Mangal Pandey, a devoted Hindu Brahmin, was furious by the suspected use of fat in the cartridges and decided to display their disapproval by taking violent action against the British.
2. Important centres of revolution were Delhi, Lucknow, Bareilly, Jhansi and Ara of Bihar. The revolts took place under the leadership of colonel Bhukth Khan in Delhi, Nana Saheb and Tantya Tope in Kanpur, Begam Hazrat Mahal in Lucknow, Lakshmi Bai in Jhansi, Khan Bahadur Khan in Bareilly and Kunwar Singh in Bihar.
