UneducatedClinic, Yes:- Back then bullets had to be bitten and the word was spread that pork fat was being used which was anathema to Moslems. or cow's fat for Hindus.

Even if pig or cow fat was not used, the rumour of such was enough as a psychological weapon. When the British first arrived the skirl of the bagpipes was very effective in unnerving the opposing combatants!
