Rebellion Against the British Raj

The Rebellion Against the British Raj refers to various protests and uprisings by Indian people against British colonial rule in India from the mid-19th to early 20th centuries. These movements arose due to issues like economic exploitation, political control, cultural suppression, and social injustices. Key events include the 1857 Sepoy Mutiny, which challenged British authority, and subsequent nationalist movements demanding independence. Although many efforts were suppressed or failed initially, they collectively fueled the desire for self-rule, culminating in India’s independence in 1947. These struggles played a vital role in shaping India's path toward freedom.
