Hindu dominated India was mostly ruled by Muslim rulers in middle ages.

Aurangzeb was remarkably pious and zealous. He abandoned the religious tolerance of his predecessors. During his reign, many Hindu temples were destroyed, and Hindus were converted to Islam, both by inducement and by force. Resentment grew amongst the Hindus. These feelings would lead to open political and military rebellion, which eventually caused the collapse of Mughal empire .
In the early 1700s, Hindu revolts and a breakdown in law and order ended the last Muslim empire in India. After that, Hindus started joining the armies of East Indian company.They were loyal and brave fighters. By 1856, the company employed 300,000 native Indian troops. Three-fourths of the sepoys were Hindus.The sepoys had a reputation as fierce fighters. The Hindu sepoys carefully observed their duty to their caste and religion.

Eventually Hindus joined the Sepoy mutiny against British because of there irrespect to Indians.

no,i dont think like that,bcoz at that period india consisted many small kingdoms ruled by weak kings,they are fighting each other for land,power,money and fame etc,these fighting made kingdoms weak and also people were poor and malnuturious.these kings wouldn't hesistate to ask foreingn(biritish) powers to help and destroy their enmies,blindly accepting terms and conditions of the foreing powers.seize this oppurtunity foreingn powers successfully colonized india for a long period.cast and other factors are less signifcant at that time.even though expetions are their.
