One version of the story of the Sepoy Rebellion was that a rumor started that cartridges for the muzzleloading rifles issued to the native soldiers in India had bullets lubricated with beef tallow, another that lard (pig fat) had been used. These cartridges were used by biting the paper cartridge to open them before pouring powder down the barrel. Many of the soldiers were Hindu, and regarded the cow as a sacred animal, and believed this was an effort by the British to "break their caste"- or disgrace them. The Muslim soldiers believed pigs (and pig fat) to be unclean, and prohibited by their religion.
In fact, the cartridges were lubricated with neither tallow nor lard, but the British forces failed to control the rampant rumors, ordered to troops to use the cartridges, and took disciplinary action against the Sepoys when they refused.
The immediate cause of the Indian Revolt of 1857, or Sepoy Mutiny, was a seemingly minor change in the weapons used by the British East India Company's troops. The Company had upgraded to the new Pattern 1853 Enfield rifle, which used greased paper cartridges.
