ok this is what wikipedia says:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengal_Presidency
"The other important institution which emerged in this period was the Bengal Army, by far the largest of the three Presidency armies, which until the Indian Mutiny in 1857 recruited mainly Rajputs and Bhumihar Brahmins from Purbiya."

Please correct me if I am wrong, but I thought that most of the rebels were from the Bengal Army which was recruited mostly from present day UP/Bihar, why are 6/7 rebel sepoys Rajputs?

For most of the Hindu idolators, 1857 was the formal end of their dhimmitude.1857 ended the supremacy of momeens over the idolator hindus- no longer was our blood inferior to a momeen blood , the civil laws and IPC made us equal in status to momeens.
Modern education was thrown open to us by the British and we seized the opportunity after 800 years of dhimmitude.... We found this as the opportunity to get even with the our opressors and enslavers and took to modern education, instead of traditional gurukuls by amassing MA-s and MSc-s.
We watched the momeens sulking and going back into their shells after 1857 dreaming about their idolator slave men and women and their millions worth of zimmi-daris from the hindu idolator lands under their erstwhile control. We managed to get our freedom back by collaborating with the British. Thanks to them we got back our freedom.
This is the reality of 1857 - it was a moment of true liberation for the hindu idolators from their centuries of Dhimmi existence!

Pavo,
Isnt it ironic that ordinary north indian hindus fought and killed the british to preserve mughal rule, while punjabi muslims helped to destroy it?
Sorry to say this but punjabi muslims have always been collaborators with external forces, a tradition that started with the first muslim invader of india and continues to date with the americans.
