The Sepoy Mutiny (Indian Mutiny, Sepoy Uprising )of 1857 was a reaction by the native Indian troops under British command to the introduction of paper cartidges for their rifles. The loading of the rifles involved biting off the end of the paper cartridge before tipping the contents into the barrel.To seal the end of the paper cartridge the British had used a mixture of beef tallow (deeply offensive to the Hindu to whom the cow is sacred) and pig fat (deeply offensive to the Muslim).As the native troops consisted of both Hindu and Muslim a violent reaction ensued.
