Answer:
The policies that the British introduced after the revolt of 1857:
- In order to ensure more responsible management of Indian affairs, the East India Company's powers were handed to the British Crown.
- The Governor-General of India was granted the title of Viceroy, implying that he was the Crown's personal representative.
- The British resolved to respect the people of India's traditional religions and social norms.
Explanation:
- All of the country's ruling chiefs were assured that their land would never be annexed again. Their kingdoms might be passed down to their heirs, including their adopted son. They did, however, recognise Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom as their Sovereign Paramount.
- It was determined to reduce the proportion of Indian soldiers in the army while increasing the number of European soldiers. It was also determined that instead of recruiting soldiers from Awadh, Bihar, Central India, and South India, more Gorkhas, Sikhs, and Pathans would be recruited.
