The British historians looked at the revolt of 1857 as a mutiny of the soldiers of the East India Company. Hence, they called it the Sepoy Mutiny. They attributed the revolt to specific grievances faced by the soldiers over their working conditions and pay. They did not link the revolt to any wider movement for freedom of India from British rule.
