The 1857 Uprising (also known as the Indian Rebellion of 1857, India's First War of Independence, the Great Rebellion, the Indian Mutiny, the Revolt of 1857, the Sepoy Rebellion, and the Sepoy Mutiny) began on 10 May 1857 as a mutiny of sepoys of the East India Company's army in the town of Meerut, some 70 km northeast of Delhi.
The Indian rebellion of 1857 ended the rule of the British East India Company
After the Rebellion of 1857, also known as the Sepoy Mutiny, the British government dissolved the British East India Company and assumed direct control over India, marking the beginning of the British Raj. This shift in governance led to significant administrative reforms and the establishment of a centralized government. The British aimed to stabilize the region, imposing stricter regulations and military presence while also fostering infrastructure development. However, this period was characterized by exploitation and resistance, setting the stage for India's eventual struggle for independence.
The British government tightened its control over India.
