The Indian sepoys believed that the cartridge of the enfield rifle which had to be bitten off before every use were greased with animal fat which hurted the religious sentiments of both the hindus and the muslims.

So they refused to use these catridges

Answer 2

Answer:

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.
