Causes of Unrest
As the Indian revolt gained energy, people found additional reasons to protest British rule. Princely families joined the uprising due to changes to the inheritance law which made adopted children ineligible to assume the throne. This was an attempt by the British to control royal succession in the princely states that were nominally independent from the British.
Large landholders in northern India also rose up, since the British East India Company had confiscated land and redistributed it to the peasantry. Peasants were none too happy either, though—they joined the revolt to protest heavy land taxes imposed by the British.
Religion also prompted some Indians to join the mutiny. The East India Company forbade certain religious practices and traditions, including sati—the practice of killing widows on the death of their husbands—to the outrage of many Hindus. The company also tried to undermine the caste system, which seemed inherently unfair to post-Enlightenment British sensibilities. In addition, British officers and missionaries began to preach Christianity to the Hindu and Muslim sepoys. The Indians believed, quite reasonably, that their religions were under attack by the East India Company.
Finally, Indians—regardless of class, caste, or religion—felt oppressed and disrespected by the agents of the British East India Company. Company officials who abused or even murdered Indians were seldom punished properly: Even if they were tried, they were rarely convicted, and those who were convicted could avoid punishment by filing endless appeals. A general sense of racial superiority among the British fueled Indian anger across the country.
