The above statement is True.
The Revolt of 1857 is considered the first war of independence.
VD Savarkar considered the revolt of 1857 the "first war of independence." He opined that the widespread nature of the revolt had never been seen before. Earlier, the revolts against the British were to present the rebels' personal demands. However, it was for the first time that the rebels aimed at the removal of British rule. It didn't remain confined to a particular region. Instead, several regions experienced uprisings simultaneously with a widespread nature. However, some scholars didn't agree with them. They considered the revolt a mere sepoy mutiny and that it had no common goal.
