Answer:
O b. The British government tightened its control over India.
Explanation:
The 1857 Sepoy Mutiny or the Indian Mutiny was the unsuccessful revolt of the Indians against the British regime. This revolt was also known as the first war of Independence, resulting in the bloody and violent loss for the Indian troops.
The Indians were unhappy to be under the Britishers. With different approaches to try to get their liberty, the people would rebel against the empire. One such event is the Sepoy Mutiny where the 'hired' Indians were unhappy about the many issues, be it racial discrimination, religious disregard, low pay, etc. Though the revolt started with the issue of how to grease their guns (with animal fat) which was great against the religious beliefs of the Hindu and Muslim Indians, it would only lead to a bloody encounter and was successfully quelled by the Britishers. This event led the British government to tighten or restrict the freedom and rights enjoyed by the Indians.
