1857 The Great Uprising

An Indian Perspective

Fierce battle at the Betwa River

April 1

betwa river battle

Tatya Tope’s forces are engaged in a fierce battle with the British at Burwa Sagar.

We hear that the Tatya has chosen to attack in two lines and hopefully he has a plan to use the second line to help end the Jhansi fort siege.

There is some talk in the fort to burst out of the fort and attack the British while they are fighting Tatya’s forces. But the bombardment at the fort has not diminished any and frankly that worries us.

But we trust Tatya Tope. He has 28 guns with him and with enough man power, he will be able to overcome whatever obstacles he encounters.
