What event in which rumors that cartridges were laced with cow and pork fat which violated religious beliefs is know as what?
I must say, this question needs to be rephrased, but what I can gather from it, I shall gladly answer!
Following the gradual take-over of the subcontinent (United India) by the British, a royal British Army was assembled. The majority of the soldiers in this army consisted mostly of Hindus and Muslims.
When a new rifle was introduced, all soldiers of the army were to use it, however, there were rumours that the cartridge of the gun was lubricated with the grease of pigs, and cows. Now, a thing that needs to be understood is that the cartridge needs to be bitten off before being used. This was forbidden for Muslims as pork is not allowed for them and, unholy for the Hindus as cows were seen as a holy relic.
This sparked off the War of Independence,1857

Were rifle cartridges greased with aimal fat the key cause of the sapoy rebellion?
One version of the story of the Sepoy Rebellion was that a rumor started that cartridges for the muzzleloading rifles issued to the native soldiers in India had bullets lubricated with beef tallow, another that lard (pig fat) had been used. These cartridges were used by biting the paper cartridge to open them before pouring powder down the barrel. Many of the soldiers were Hindu, and regarded the cow as a sacred animal, and believed this was an effort by the British to "break their caste"- or disgrace them. The Muslim soldiers believed pigs (and pig fat) to be unclean, and prohibited by their religion. In fact, the cartridges were lubricated with neither tallow nor lard, but the British forces failed to control the rampant rumors, ordered to troops to use the cartridges, and took disciplinary action against the Sepoys when they refused.
Why did the sepoys refuse to use the cartridges?
Much of the life of an Indian citizen was governed by their caste- or social position. Many were Hindu, and some were Moslem. The rumor began that the bullets of the cartridges were lubricated with beef tallow (fat) or pig fat. Since the cow is a sacred animal in the Hindu religion, and the pig is an unclean animal in the Moslem religion, and the paper cartridges were used by BITING the end off the cartridge (before pouring the powder down the barrel) a rumor began that this was a plan by the English to break the caste of the Sepoys by exposing them to a forbidden practice. The resistance by the Sepoys was poorly handled, and was the start of the "Indian Mutiny". In fact, neither beef tallow nor pig fat was used on the cartridges- but rumors can be very damaging.
