hey dude....
ur answer is here......!!!!!

(1) The social reforms introduced by the British were looked upon with suspicion by the conservative sections of the Indian society.
(2) Reforms such as abolition of ‘sati’, legalization of widow remarriage and extension of western education to women were looked upon as examples of interference in the social customs of the country.
(3). The social discrimination faced by the Indians due to the British attitude of racial superiority also led to much resentment.
(4) Educated Indians were denied promotions and appointments to high office.
(5) This turned them against the British.

thanks......!
