Why is it incomplete to call the Revolt of 1857 only a sepoy revolt?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because peasants, zamindars and ruling groups also joined with sepoys

The revolt began among sepoys, but in many regions peasants, zamindars, dispossessed rulers and sections of the local population also participated. Their grievances involved revenue demands, land policies, annexation and British rule. Therefore, calling it only a sepoy revolt ignores its wider social and political character. The foreign-traders option is incorrect because they were not the main social base of the uprising. Exam tip: remember that the revolt started with sepoy discontent but drew participation from several social groups.
