• The revolt of 1857 is also known as the First War of Independence or the Sepoy Mutiny.
• The major trigger for the revolt was the issue of the 'Enfield' cartridge.
• To load the cartridge into the rifles, it had to be bitten off.

• On May 10, 1857, the mutiny began in Meerut and it was initiated by the soldiers of the Bengal Presidency.
