(5x5=25 marks) U U U U (5) U (30) (5) (5x5=25 ) In 1857, the rebels took up arms to recover what they believed to have been their ancestral domains. The idea of domain, in terms of geographical or social space, was perhaps now longer than the village or their immediate caste or kin group. They were in fact trying to free Hindustan of foreign yoke. There was remarkable religious amity during the revolt, as all agreed that Hindustan belonged to Hindus and Muslims alike. The rebels of 1857 wanted to go back to the old familial order and by this time they did not mean the centralized Mughal state of the seventeenth century. They wanted to restore the decentralized political order of eighteenth century India. When the provincial rulers functioned with considerable antonomy, but all acknowledged the Mughal emperor as the source of political legitimacy. When Birjis Qadr was crowned by the rebel sepoys as the king of Awadh, the condition imposed on him was to recognize the Mughal emperor as the suzerain authority. Delhi, the Mughal capital and Bahadurshah, the Mughal emperor acted as symbols of that familiar world, and on this there was no dispute among the rebels. A recent author has discovered in the rebellion of 1857 a set of patriotic revolts. What the rebels demanded was the restoration of the Indo-Mughal patrias within the broader constellation of Mughal legitimacy, animated by mutual respect and a healthy balance between lands and peoples. The profession of loyalty by the Calcutta intelligentsia was not without dilemma, as they too were feeling the grievances inseparable from subjection to foreign rule. Thus conscious voices of dissent and disaffection against foreign rule, if not always an avowed yearning for liberation, ran across the different sections of population in India in 1857-58.
