Answer:

5. The reasons fro the confidence of the British before the revolt of 1857 were:

• The rebellions and riots that took place before 1857 were localised in nature and were easily suppressed by the British.

• The powers of the rajas and nawabs were limited by the mid 18th century. Their armed forces were disbanded and revenue earning territories were taken away from them.

• The Mughal Empire had weakened by this time. Entire India was not united.

• The British had stationed their residents in many courts and provinces. These residents passed on every detail of the kingdom to the governor.

6. There was a wide spread impact on the people of the whole country and its ruling families after Bahadur Shah Zafar's support to the rebellion. These were:

• He wrote letters to all the chiefs and rulers of the country to come forward and organize a confederacy of Indian states to fight with Britishers. All small and big kingdoms, kings, Nawabs, Rajas, princes, zamindars, chiefs and even many Hindu and Muslim religious leaders welcomed this initial step taken by the Emperor and joined hands to rebel against the British.

• Regiment after regiment mutinied and started to join other troops at nodal points like- Delhi, Kanpur and Lucknow.

• The people of towns and villages also joined the rebellion in mass and rallied around local leaders, zamindars and rulers who were prepared to regain their lost authority and fight against the British.

7. The British government regarded Awadh as one of the major centers of revolt. The people of the village along with the Sepoy revolted against the colonial rule. Though the British government suppressed the revolt they made attempts to regain the loyalty of the people of Awadh by granting them the inheritance rights, for instance, they were allowed to entertain the traditional right over their land and they were exempted from Taxes by the colonial government.  

8.  The British changed their policies as a result of rebellion of 1857 in these ways:

• British queen Elizabeth I took charge of administration and British Parliament passed an act in 1859. The powers of the East India Company were taken back and transferred to the British crown.

• The rulers of Indian princely states were given assurance that their territories would not be annexed by the British. But the Indian rulers had to be loyal towards the British crown.

• The British assured the land owners by making policies which protect their land.

• The British reorganized their army by reducing the number of Indian soldiers and increasing the number of European soldiers.

• The British decided to respect the customary religions and social practices of the people in India.
