Abstract

The Revolt of 1857, also known as the First War of Indian Independence, was a watershed event in Indian history. It represented the first large-scale and organized uprising against British colonial rule, combining political, economic, social, and religious discontent. Sparked by immediate military grievances but rooted in deeper structural causes, the revolt spread across northern and central India, challenging the authority of the East India Company. This paper analyzes the multifaceted causes, the course of the rebellion, its leadership, and its eventual suppression. Drawing upon the works of historians such as R. C. Majumdar, S. N. Sen, and V. D. Savarkar, it also explores the consequences of the uprising -- politically, socially, and administratively -- and its lasting impact on the Indian freedom movement.
