The immediate cause of the Revolt of 1857 was the use of new cartridges made of pork or beef fat. Revolutionaries set fire to the buildings and property of the British and declared war against them. From Meerut the revolt spread to different parts of India along with Rajasthan. The revolution in Rajasthan extended in various places like Nasirabad, Neemach, Kota, Jhalawar, Tonk, Shahpur, etc. Here, soldiers were also determined to end the British rule. But finally, due to lack of proper leadership, the British curbed the revolt with the help of their military force.
