About the battle
The Battle of Badli-ki-Serai was fought early in the Indian Rebellion of 1857 as it has since been termed in Indian histories of the events. A British and Gurkha force defeated a force of sepoys who had rebelled against the British East India Company. The British victory enabled them to besiege and ultimately capture Delhi.
