Answer 2

Answer:

The British government believed that the British East India Company was causing too much disruption in India's social structure.

Explanation:

The British East India Company had originally ruled the South Asian area now known as India in order to insure the profitability of its business activities. However, after the Vellore Mutiny and the Rebellion of 1957, the British government determined that the British East Indian Company was disturbing too much of India's social structure, taking away people's rights and compensating them too poorly for their services and resources. Thus the British government took control of India and established the British Raj.
