Explanation:
- The sepoys refused to do the army drill using the new cartridges with some objections. They suspected that the cartridges were coated with the fat of cows and pigs. Both Hindus and Muslims felt insulted.
- The soldiers felt that it was a move by the British to defame their religion because no Hindu would touch the beef and no Muslim would touch the pork. As a result, the Indian sepoys refused to use greased cartridges.
