the policy of westernization/ Anglicization is one of the big contributors to clash of the cultures. the British people forced the Indian people to become Anglican and to accept western society and systems. The final spark to the start of the Sepoy Rebellion/mutiny was when the British told the Indian people to bite of the end of a gun cartridge which was rumored to be greased with pig and cow fat (to Muslims pigs are unclean and to Hindus cows were sacred). they were forced to go against there own beliefs by doing that and thus the rebellion started.
