Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
The Revolt of 1857 was a popular uprising that posed massive resistance to the Britishers. However, it could not sustain itself for long. The main reasons were:
  • The Revolt of 1857 had a fragmented nature. Not all regions participated in the revolt. South India remained silent during the revolt.
  • The revolt was fought in different regions for their reasons. There was no common goal. The leaders had selfish motives of their own.
  • The British adopted severe repressive measures. They brought reinforcement from Britain and had much-advanced arms and ammunition.
  • Not all sections of society equally participated. The revolt remained more like a sepoy mutiny.

  • The correct statement would be the revolt of 1857 was not successful in ousting the British.
