Answer:
In the aftermath of the Indian Mutiny of 1857, also called the Sepoy Mutiny by the British, the three armies of the former Presidencies of the East India Company passed to the British Crown. ... The Sikhs after the Anglo-Sikh wars treated the British Army as a replacement for the Sikh Khalsa Army.
The immediate cause of the Indian Revolt of 1857, or Sepoy Mutiny, was a seemingly minor change in the weapons used by the British East India Company's troops. ... The switch only confirmed, in the minds of the sepoys, that the original cartridges had indeed been greased with cow and pig fat.
