Rani Lakshmi bhai was one of the foremost figures of the Indian Rebellion of 1857 and became a symbol of resistance to the British. She was the queen of the princely state of Jhansi in North India (present U.P). She set up huge cannon to be used on the walls of the fort and gathered forces that enabled the victory over the invaders of the revolt of 1857. She joined additional rebel forces, including Tantia Tope. They engaged the town of Kalpi and prepared to defend it. On 22 May 1857 British forces attacked Kalpi; the forces were instructed by the Rani herself and were again conquered.
