Which concern of the British government directly influenced the reorganisation of the Indian army after the Revolt of 1857?
Preventing a future unified military uprising by Indian soldiers against British rule.
After the Revolt of 1857, the British reorganised the Indian army primarily to prevent a future unified military uprising by Indian soldiers against British rule, by mixing regiments of different regions and communities.
Reducing cavalry influence, limiting political awareness through education, and avoiding overseas deployment costs were secondary or unrelated concerns, not the primary driving factor.
Hence, 'Preventing a future unified military uprising by Indian soldiers against British rule' is the correct answer.
