✨ANSWER✨

VISION OF UNITY BEHIND THE FIRST WAR OF INDEPENDENCE.

The Indian Rebellion of 1857 was a major, but ultimately unsuccessful, uprising in India in 1857–58 against the rule of the British East India Company, which functioned as a sovereign power on behalf of the British Crown. The rebellion began on 10 May 1857 in the form of a mutiny of sepoys of the Company's army in the garrison town of Meerut, 40 mi (64 km) northeast of Delhi (now Old Delhi). It then erupted into other mutinies and civilian rebellions chiefly in the upper Gangetic plain and central India, though incidents of revolt also occurred farther north and east.The rebellion posed a considerable threat to British power in that region, and was contained only with the rebels' defeat in Gwalior on 20 June 1858.On 1 November 1858, the British granted amnesty to all rebels not involved in murder, though they did not declare the hostilities to have formally ended until 8 July 1859. The rebellion is known by many names, including the Sepoy Mutiny, the Indian Mutiny, the Great Rebellion, the Revolt of 1857, the Indian Insurrection, and the First War of Independence.

Answer 2

The first war of Independence was a period of rebellions in northern and central India against British  and it is referred to as the Sepoy Mutiny. It was a vision of Unity which brought the Hindu and Muslims together when Indian soldiers rebelled against their British officers over violation of their religious feelings.

Explanation:

• The rebellion was widely followed by the Muslim uprising, and there was equal participation by the Hindus when the British Army inducted a new type of rifle whose cartridge was said to be greased in cow and pig fat.
• Since the Hindus consider the cow a sacred animal and do not eat beef, on the other hand the  Muslims consider it an offense to consume pork. The entire Indian part of the British Army rose in rebellion against the British.
• This was widely acknowledged as the first ever united rebellion against colonial rule in India which was driven by Mangal Pandey who was a Sepoy in the colonial British army
