India has witnessed rise and fall of countless empires from Taj to Raj, numerous battles and revolts. Perhaps one of the biggest mass movements modern society has ever seen, which rouse millions of Indian of all castes, creeds and ideologies against the Empire rule, is the mutiny of 1857 (first war of independence for Indians). The first signs of Mutiny appeared at Barrackpore and Behrampur, in Bengal, at the outset of 1857 and were rapidly repressed. In May 1857, however, the Indian soldiers at Meerut revolted, opened the prisons in to which there fellows have been thrown, killed the European officers, and burnt their houses. The next day they rushed towards Delhi, massacring Europeans, and proclaimed Bahadur Shah II Emperor of India. Insurrection then took place almost everywhere.

At Cawnpore (Kanpur), Nana Sahib - who had proclaimed himself Peshwa - managed to seize the fortress and its British Garrison, and massacred all the occupants.

At Lucknow, the Mutiny began on 30th May 1857, but the English garrison was able to hang on at the residence until November, when troops arrived under the new commander - in - Chief from England, Sir Colin Campbell (later Lord Clyde), assisted by Jang Bahadur of Nepal with his strong contingent of Gorkhas.

Only few sites of theses mutinies, battlefields, cemeteries and movement remain (1857 -1947), but story of these extraordinary episodes are equally exciting for both European and Indian.
