albcan Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 what type of divide and rule policies were used gorkhas and Bengalis regiments were the once used as mercenaries for the british why did Sikhs afterwards decide to fight for the british rather than against the british 1857 the Sikhs fought along with the gorkhas to crush the rebellion why? did the british purposely pick martial races to play divide rule treat the martial races real well to win their loyalty and use that loyalty to exploit the indians that were discriminated against by british policies why did the Sikhs fall for these policies rather then stand up for the Indians that were discriminated against 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalsingh101 Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Just capitalised on the Mughals centuries of division really, Babur did the hard work in planting the seeds of social hatred. I don't think it was Babur who did that; rather Jahangir started it and Aurengzaab took it to the max with his drive to promote Islam. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
