Answer:
The Revolt of 1857 —the First War of Independence!
By the first half of the 19th century, the East India Company had brought major portions of India under its control.
One hundred years after the Battle of Plassey, anger against the unjust and oppressive British Government took the form of a revolt that shook the very foundations of British rule in India.
