Answer:

Hindu & Muslim resistance

Step-by-step explanation:

Sepoy Rebellion is an example of "Hindu & Muslim resistance."

In what was known as the First War of Independence in old India, which lasted between 1857 to 1859, the leading cause of the rebellion was the British method of greasing new gun cartridges with beef and pork fat. This was seen as an abomination or against the tenets of Islam and Hinduism religions.

Hence, the Hindus and Muslims began the resistance to avert such practices.
