Question

Why were the Brahmin soldiers upset with the British?​

Answer 1

New Delhi: Rajput Regiment, Jat Regiment, Rajputana Rifles, Maratha Light Infantry, Madras Regiment, Mahar and Gurkha Regiments. These are how some of the regiments and corps of the Indian Army are named, ushering in a sense of caste hierarchy before igniting patriotic passion and valour.

This apparent and conspicuous revelation of the caste factor became the bone of contention recently when a plea urged the Delhi High Court to strike down a recruitment notice of the Indian Army as violative of Article 14 (Right to Equality) of the Indian Constitution.
