Explanation:
The revolt marked the end of the East India Company's rule in India. India now came under the direct rule of the British Crown. ... Thus, Indian administration was taken over by Queen Victoria, which, in effect, meant the British Parliament. The Governor General's office was replaced by that of the Viceroy.
