(d) Agitation against reduction of age limits for entry into Civil Services

Ans: (c) Peasant agitation against the indigo planters in Bengal

 Explanation: The event that immediately followed the Revolt of the Sepoys in 1857 was (c) Peasant agitation against the indigo planters in Bengal.

After the suppression of the Sepoy Rebellion in 1857, various local uprisings and agitations took place in different parts of India. One of these was the peasant agitation against the indigo planters in Bengal, which occurred in the late 1850s and early 1860s. The indigo planters had imposed oppressive and exploitative practices on the peasants, leading to widespread discontent and resistance. The peasants organized protests, refused to grow indigo, and demanded fair treatment and better conditions. This agrarian agitation was one of the significant consequences of the larger rebellion and demonstrated the continuing unrest and grievances among the Indian population against British rule.
