Question

Which of the following was NOT a reason for the Indian revolt against the British?

Answer 1

Indians had a lurking suspicion that they would be converted to Christianity under the new regime. The fear was largely due to the activities of some of the activities of some Christian missionaries who openly ridiculed the customs and the traditons of both Hindus and Muslims.The English also established Chapels and Churches for propagating Chritianity at the expense of the government. Even civil and military officers were asked to propagate the gospel. The religious sentiments of the people were further hurt when a tax was imposed on property held by temples and mosques.
