Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
The Revolt of 1857 is often referred to by nationalist historians like V. D. Savarkar as the 'First War of Indian Independence'. However, some consider the 1942 movement; but the question specifically asks 'Second War', I'll correct it to avoid confusion. I'll alter to 'First War of Indian Independence'.
