Explanation:

An uprising in several sepoy companies of the Bengal army was sparked by the issue of new gunpowder cartridges for the Enfield rifle in February 1857. Loading the Enfield often required tearing open the greased cartridge with one's teeth, and

many sepoys believed that the cartridges were greased with cow and pig fat.

Hope it helps.
