Answer:

A. Meerut

Read Explanation:

The Sepoy Mutiny of 1857 started in Meerut. It was a major but ultimately unsuccessful uprising in India in 1857–58 against the rule of the British East India Company, acting on behalf of the British Crown as the sovereign power. The rebellion began on May 10, 1857, in the form of a mutiny of the Company's army in the garrison town of Meerut, 64 km northeast of Delhi (now Old Delhi). It then erupted into other mutinies and civil rebellions mainly in the upper Gangetic plains and central India, although there were also incidents of revolt in the far north and east. The rebellion posed a considerable threat to British power in that region and was contained only by the defeat of the rebels in Gwalior on 20 June 1858.
