Explanation:
The Indian mutiny was period of uprisings in Northern and central India which lasted from 1857-1858. It is also known as the revolt of 1857. The cause of rebellion was that the Indians started to believe that the British wanted to convert them into Christianity and also the rumor that British were coating the Cartridges with cow and pig fat in the Lee-Enfield rifles to corrupt their religion. Using Cow and Pig fat was offensive for both the Hindus and Muslim soldiers.

The mutiny began when Mangal Pande of 34th Native Infantry killed his British Sergeant.
