Answer:
The Sepoy event was a violent and very uprising against British rule in India in 1857.
The events of 1857 have been considered the first outbreak of an independence movement against British rule.
The Revolt of 1857 eventually broke out over the incident of greased cartridges. A rumour spread that the cartridges of the new enfield rifles were greased with the fat of cows and pigs. Before loading these rifles the sepoys had to bite off the paper on the cartridges. Both Hindu and Muslim sepoys refused to use them.
