Myth of Hindu-Muslim Unity in India’s First War of Independence | The Traitors of 1857

The 1857 Revolt is often hailed as India’s First War of Independence, celebrated for its supposed unity between Hindus and Muslims against British rule. But was it really so unified? In this video, we dive deep into rarely discussed historical records, including eyewitness accounts and the writings of Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, to uncover the communal fractures that plagued the rebellion—especially in Rohilkhand. From forced appeals and targeted violence to the strategic surrender of Hindus to British forces, we explore how communal tensions shaped the uprising and foreshadowed the seeds of India’s partition. Featuring insights from R.C. Majumdar and other scholars, this video challenges the sanitized narratives and brings forth the complex, often uncomfortable truths of 1857. 🔔 Subscribe for more history that breaks the mold.
