Answer:

Mutiny

Step-by-step explanation:

1857 Sepoy regiments received new rifles. ... 1857 Hindu Sepoys & Muslims united against the British & staged a mutiny, killed their British officers, proclaimed restoration of Mughal authority. Left bitter feelings & caused the British to change their policies.
