Many modern historians do not agree that the revolt of 1857 was the first nor was it a war of independence. For them it was Sepoy Mutiny as it has been started by a group of sepoys.It cannot be called as the first war of independence because many small uprisings did take place from time to time against the British in india.�

Moreover, the revolt started mainly in the army cantonment for the use of greased catridges. It was not a planned or organised movement against the british. The spirit of nationalism did not even formed its base in india till the outbreak of the revolt. The historians failed to recognise the involvement of a vast section of the indians who participated in this struggle. For them the main focus was on the Indian sepoys and their demand to remove the greased catridges
