Answer 1

Explanation:

vd savarkar named the revolt of 1857 as the first war of independence because it was for the first time that our entire nation irrespective of the caste, creed, race, and religion had come together and staged an armed protest against the Britishers to gain independence from their colonial rule.

Answer 2

Answer:

British historians have considered the 1857 struggle of Indians as a mere Sepoy Mutiny. But Indian national historians declared it as a great revolt of the people and called it The First War of Indian Independence. Vinayak Damodar Savarkar was the first among those who called it the first war of Indian independence. Even Pattabhi Sitaramaiah stated it as the first war of Indian independence. It was a combined effort of almost all the communities of the nation.
