Question

the british conservative leader, who termed the revolution of 1857 as the 'national revolt

Answer 1

$\textbf{ANSWER:}$

$<b><u>British never considered the revolt of 1857 as a national revolt they termed it as Sepoy mutiny and updated further as Indian sepoys rebellion.$

However, Karl Marx was the first Western scholar to call the 1857 revolt a "national revolt", though he used the term Sepoy Revolt to describe the event.

Though, many Indian historians considered the movement as 'First war of independence'.
