The revolt 1857 was placed at the military cantonment at meerut , where the British army had camped on Sunday ,May 10,1857, because the soliders who helped the English to conquer the kingdoms of India.they were now fed up with the behavior of the English. They were not getting their salaries on time and they were not treated with respect in the British army. On top of this, the sipahis suspected that the cartridges for their new guns(rifles) were coated with cow and pig fat to keep them dry. They felt that their religious faith was being violated , so the Indians fought to drive out the English and bring back Mughal rule.
