If John Lawrence (British statesman and Viceroy of India) had to disband or suppress 36,000 mutinous Sepoys in the Punjab, he was able to enlist from Ghoorkas and Sikhs
and the wild tribes on the Afghan borders more than another 36,000 to take their places.
He fed the scanty and gallant force which kept the British flag flying before Delhi with an
ever-flowing stream of native soldiers of sufficient fidelity. At the time of the Mutiny
there were 38,000 British soldiers in a population of 180,000,000. If the Mutiny has been
indeed a "national" uprising, what chances of survival would the handful of British have
had?

The Sepoy Mutiny resulted from the British East India Company's
lack of respect for the beliefs and traditions of the local population
favoritism of one certain ethnic group over others
unwillingness to improve the infrastructure of their territory
support of unpopular local rulers who were considered to be tyrants

Lack of respect for the beliefs and traditions of the local population.

Indian Mutiny or Indian Rebellion of 1857 was a widespread rebellion against British rule in India by Indian troops (sepoys) in the service of the English East India Company in the year 1857.

The reason for the Mutiny was the introduction of new rifle cartridges, which were thought to be lubricated with grease containing a mixture of pigs’ and cows’ lard and thus religiously impure for Muslims and Hindus.

Britishers were harsh against the protesters who were reluctant to touch those cartridges. Following which Indian troops started to protest by shooting their senior British officers and marched to Delhi.

Therefore, the lack of respect for the beliefs and traditions of the local population by the Britishers resulted into the Great Mutiny of 1857.
