Question

Who among the following called the Revolt of 1857 as a 'national uprising'?

A.

Sir John Outram

B.

T. R. Holmes

C.

Sir John Lawrence

D.

Benjamine Disraeli

Correct option is D

Benjamin Disraeli, a prominent British politician who later became the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, played a significant role in shaping British policy and opinion during the 19th century. His characterization of the Revolt of 1857 as a "national uprising" reflects a deeper understanding of the event compared to many of his contemporaries.

The Revolt of 1857, also known as the First War of Indian Independence, was a widespread rebellion against British rule in India. While many British officials and historians initially referred to it as the "Sepoy Mutiny," implying that it was a mere military revolt by Indian soldiers (sepoys) in the British East India Company's army, Disraeli saw it differently.
