During 1857 revolt how long did the administration of Kota remain under the control of rebels ?

  • A.14 Months
  • B.3 Months
  • C.9 Months
  • D.6 Months

Answer: D

Kota stayed under the rebels for about 6 Months.

In October 1857 the Kota state troops, led by Lala Jaidayal and Mehrab Khan, rose, killed the Political Agent Major Burton and took control of the state, confining the Maharao. British forces under General Roberts recaptured Kota only at the end of March 1858, about six months later.

Three months is too short for that period, and nine or fourteen months would run past the recapture of Kota in the spring of 1858.
