The political reasons of the revolution of 1857 were:
1.By Outright Wars-The British wanted to expand their territory further in order to safeguard their economical and political interests.For this they waged many wars in many parts of India.
2.By Subsidiary Alliance-Some Indians States were brought into control by the British without annexing them.This was because of subsidiary alliance.Under this system,the Indian rulers who agreed this alliance:
*accepted the British as the supreme power
*surrendered their foreign relations to the East India Company and agreed that they would not enter into any alliance with any other power and would not wage wars
*accepted a British Resident at their headquarters and agreed not to employ any European in their service without consulting the Company
*agreed to maintain British troop at their own cost
*virtually lost their independence
3.By using Doctrine of Lapse-Lord Dalhousie,the governor general of India annexed many Indian States to the company using the doctrine of lapse.According to this Doctrine,heirs adopted without the consent of the company,could inherit only the private property of the deceased ruler,and not his territory,which would come under the company's rule.
4.On the pretext of alleged misrule-In 1856,Lord Dalhousie annexed Awadh to the company's dominions on the pretext of alleged misrule.The annexation of Awadh was arbitrary as the British seemed to have broken their promises made to the ruling chiefs.This caused resentment among the Indians in general and Awadh in particular.
