ICSE Class 10 Answered

Bahadur Shah Zafar was the last emperor and was more interested in poetry than ruling his empire. When Zafar was reinstated as the Emperor of India, the Revolt of 1857 was taking place. Keeping in mind the political situation and the ministers' restlessness, why didn't a powerful person in Zafar's court assassinate him and become emperor, which has happened in the past?

When Bahadur Shah Zafar became the Emperor of India, the Mughal empire was already on decline. The Mughal rule was limited to only Delhi and sourrending regions. Also, the British were emerging as a powerful force in India. Hence, there was no point in assassinating the Emperor.
