Use two examples to describe how insensitivity by the British toward Hindu and Muslim religious traditions caused the Sepoy Rebellion.
Answer (2)
one example is that on the cartridges in the gun that had to be pulled out with their teeth, were greased with pork or beef fat, which was against their religion. a second is that they didn't respect many of the traditions.
The Sepoy Rebellion in 1857 was largely fueled by British insensitivity toward Hindus and Muslims, particularly through the controversial use of animal fat in rifle cartridges and aggressive missionary activities. These actions provoked deep resentment among Indian soldiers, leading to widespread revolt against British authority. The uprising highlighted the profound cultural and religious disrespect felt by the sepoys.
