Answers
Answer:
The first mutiny of Indian sepoys occurred in 1764,
when a whole battalion from Hector Munro's Forces opposing Mir Qasim
at Patna joined the army of the Nawab. However, they were overpowered
and punished. This was chiefly due to lack of an understanding among the
British officers regarding the social and religious customs of the sepoys
under their charge. In order to bring about improvement and discipline in
the army, the British officers ordered the sepoys to shave their beard, to
remove the caste marks from their forehead. This enforced practice
created all kinds of apprehension and suspicion among the sepoys. This
factor led the sepoys to stage a mutiny in the fort of Vellore early in May
1806. A British contingent from Acort, brought the mutiny under control. In
1844, the 34th' Regiment at Ferozpur refused to March into Sindh, The 7th
Bengal cavalry and the 64th Regiment Followed the example of the 34th
Regiment. The mutinous troops were marched back and their ringleaders
were punished.
