Hi,
Your answer ⤵️⤵️⤵️
On May 10, 1857, Sepoys, or Indian soldiers of the British armies, refused to use cartridges suspected of containing animal fats. This is the beginning of the main insurrection against British rule.
The British in India
At the beginning of the 19th century, the Honorable East Indian Company (East India Company) dominated unchallenged the principalities of the Indian subcontinent. The emperor of Delhi, heir to the prestigious Mughal dynasty, is only a puppet in the hands of the governors general.
The submission of Indian princes, both Hindu and Muslim, is made with native soldiers (the Sepoys) and a tax fund on Indian subjects! ... In the 1850s, the indigenous troops rise to more than 250,000 Sepoys, while the regular army (Queen's regiments) does not exceed 35,000 Europeans.
In March 1857, the rumor runs that the fat used for the new cartridges is drawn from animal fats (cows according to some, pigs according to others). However, these cartridges must be torn with the teeth to be decapped before use. This can only bristle the indigenous troops, both Hindus who worship cows, and Muslims who can not tolerate contact with pork ...
British domination falters
On May 10, 1857, 85 Sepoys, who refused to use the cartridges, were sentenced to ten years of forced labor. The next day, the revolt wins the regiment that mutinies and walks on Delhi. The prestigious Mughal capital is conquered without a fight.
After taking Lucknow, panic spreads to Bombay, Madras and London. But the old British policy ("divide and conquer") is bearing fruit: the Sikhs of Punjab have little sympathy for the Mughal emperor, and Hindus in the south of the peninsula prefer to wait before choosing their camp.
The reconquest of the lost territories does not bother us with leniency for the insurgents. Delhi falls in September 1857. The emperor is arrested and his three sons summarily executed. In March 1858, the British surrendered Lucknow again.
