Synopsis The Government of India celebrated 2007 as the 150 Anniversary of what many Indians terms as "India's First War of Independence". In the Union Budget of 2007, Rs 10 crore was set aside for the celebration. The British National Army Museum in London mounted a display to mark the 150 Anniversary on 10 May 2007, and has an ongoing on-line exhibition called "India Rising" India's First War of Independence, termed Sepoy Riots by the British was an attempt to unite India against the invading British and to restore power to the Mogul Emperor Bahadur Shah. The resistance disintegrated primarily due to lack of leadership and unity on the part of Indians, as also to cruel suppression by the British Army. It was a remarkable event in Indian history and marked the end of the Mogul empire and sealed India's fate as a British colony for the next 100 years. The rebels quickly captured large swaths of the Northwest Provinces and Oudh, including Delhi, where they installed the Mughal ruler, Bahadur Shah Zafar, as Emperor of Hindustan. Aim of the book is to give a panoramic view of this great event. It contains in chronological order the whole story of this great event of historical importance, with a detailed biographical account of the leaders of the rebellion.
