One of the major reasons for the revolt was socio-religious policies of the British which included racial superiority and discrimination, missionary activities and deliberate efforts to subvert the religious beliefs of the people in India.

This created a kind of discontentment and distrust among the people against the British rule. It seemed to the people that their socio-religious customs that they cherished and held sacred were being destroyed by the British.
