Expert Answer
Following are three consequences of the First War Independence:
- End of the Company Rule in India - The most significant consequence of the 1857 rebellion was the end of the rule of the English East India Company and assumption of the Government of India by the British crown. This was done by the Government of India Act of 1858.
- Policy of Divide and Rule - After 1858, the British continued their policy of divide and rule, especially with an emphasis to turn Hindus against the Muslim community. The British authorities used the attractions of government service to drive a wedge between the educated Indians belonging to different religious communities. Also, several protections and concessions were extended on the basis of religious identity in order to encourage ill feeling and hatred among Hindus and Muslims.
- Religious Changes - The British rulers declared emphatically that they would not interfere in the religious affairs, customs and traditions of the native Indians.
