Who among the following analysed the causes of the uprising of 1857 advocating a reconciliation between the British and the Muslims?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option C
During the Indian Rebellion of 1857, he remained, loyal to the British Empire and was noted for his actions in saving European lives. After the rebellion, he penned the booklet 'The Causes of the Indian Mutiny' – a daring critique, at the time, of British policies that he blamed for causing the revolt. Believing that the future of Muslims was threatened by the rigidity of their orthodox outlook, Sir Syed began promoting Western–style scientific education by founding modern schools and journals and organising Muslim entrepreneurs.
