Hints to frame an answer.
There were several uprisings against the British before the Revolt of 1857. The resistance offered by different tribal groups, peasant and religious factions remained localised and ill organized and this is the reason why these uprisings failed. However, in certain areas the British could put down these uprisings easily, while in other areas the struggle was prolonged resulting in heavy causalities. Some fo these uprisings were the Bhil uprisings (1817-18) and the Revolt in Sawantwadi (1830, 1836 and 1838),
