CH 07 PART 01 || REVOLT OF 1857 & ITS CAUSES || HISTORY OF MODERN INDIA || BIPAN CHANDRA

Explore the deep-rooted causes of the 1857 Uprising—the "mighty popular revolt" that nearly swept away British rule in India. This video dives into the socio-economic, political, and religious grievances that turned a sepoy mutiny into a mass movement. In this video, we cover: Economic Exploitation: How British land revenue policies impoverished peasants and destroyed traditional handicrafts. Political Triggers: The impact of Lord Dalhousie’s "Doctrine of Lapse" and the annexation of Awadh. The "Peasant in Uniform": Why the Indian sepoys, despite their service, felt like "inferior creatures" under British officers. The Threat to Religion: The role of Christian missionaries and the fear of forced conversion. A Century of Resistance: Why 1857 was the culmination of over 100 years of smaller rebellions.
