Timeline of India's Independence

1857 - Establishment of the Indian Independence Movement of 1857 which would last until the eventual Indian independence in 1947. It started with the Indian Mutiny of 1857 which was a revolt led Indian soldiers against the British. â€‹
1857 (continued) -  The revolt would lead to the joining of anti-British Indian leaders and follow by many Indian citizens. Battles would spread across India, but would eventually lead to the British victory over the Indians. This conflict would be known as the First War of Indian Independence and lasted from May 10, 1957, with the Indian Mutiny to the final battle at Gwalior on June 20, 1858.

1858 - Following the end of the Indian rebellion in 1858, the Dutch East Indian Company was disbanded and Queen Victoria of Britain decided to strengthen British rule over India by proclaiming that India would be governed under the name of the British Monarch. India, under the British General Governor, or Viceroy, would have all their internal affairs, policies, and government under the British with the Viceroy speaking for Queen Victoria who claimed the new title of Empress of India.

1885 - In response to the rise of British power over India, an Indian mass movement, organized by Indian reformists, was created and was known as the Indian National Movement. This would lead to the creation of the Indian National Congress under these reformists. The founders would hold the first session of the Indian National Congress. These founders included reformists such as Allan Octavian Hume. Badruddin Tyabji, W. C. Bonnerjee, Surendranath Banerjea, Pherozeshah Mehta, and Manomohun and Lalmohan Ghose, all of whom had been educated in London. They would also work to publish an Indian magazine called India, discussing Indian news to the British press and politicians to discuss the mistreatment of Indians. The Indian National Congress would gain arguably their most influential figure in the 1920s, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. 
1919 - On April 13, General Reginald Dyer and a police force fired into a protest rally of Punjab people against the British Indian Government and killed hundreds of unarmed men, women, and children. This would be known as the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre, named after a public garden in Punjab.

1920 - In September of 1920, Mohandas Gandhi formed the Non-Cooperation Movement. The Non-Cooperation Movement was launched in response to the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre and lead to the withdrawal of national cooperation and support for the British government and authorities. The movement was able to gain support from the Indian masses of millions. 

1927 - The Non-Cooperation Movement was not only successful in gaining support, but also put a brake on political activities. In 1927, the British Government sent the Simon Commission to assist in reforming the Indian governments. The Simon Commission did not have any Indian members which led to both the Congress and Muslim League to protest and boycott the Commission. 

1929 - On December 1929, Gandhi led a mass civil disobedience movement which was to cause total national disobedience towards the orders of the British rule. To suppress their movement, the British government resulted in violence and killed thousands of Indian civilians. The movement would be suppressed and three members of the Indian National Congress would be arrested and later hanged. 

1942 - 1945 - Amid the Second World War, there both peaceful and militaristic anti-British movements some of which included cooperation with Japanese to help force out the British. In 1942, Gandhi launched the Quit India Movement which was another mass civil disobedience movement that called for British to be forced out of India via mass violence against railway stations, government buildings, telegraph offices, and other colonial institutions which stemmed the British ability to operate in India. The movement was forcibly suppressed with many political leaders and members of the Congress being arrested. 

While the Quit India Movement and Indian National Congress worked from within India to push for the removal of British colonialism, many attempted to work from without India to assist in the removal of British rule. Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, who left India after escaping a detention center in Calcutta, established the Indian National Army. The Indian National Army worked with the Japanese to fight against colonialism. They viewed Western colonialism as a greater threat than Japanese imperialism, therefore siding with them to fight against the British. After the war, when Japan lost, Bose planned to escape but was killed because of an airplane crash.​

1947 - After the war, the Labour Party took office in Britain under Prime Minister Clement Richard Attlee. The Labour Party and Attlee sympathized with the Indian movements for freedom. On August 14, 1947, India would be granted its independence.

Dime app Sports is a sports technology company with brands such as Dime app, FanCode, Dime appX, Dime appSetGo and Dime appPay in its portfolio. Dime app Sports is executing its vision of ‘Make Sports Better’ by providing multiple avenues for fans to deeply engage with the sports they love through fantasy sports, content, commerce, experiences and events, among others.Dime app provides a fantasy gaming platform for multiple sports such as cricket, football, basketball, kabaddi, hockey, volleyball, handball and baseball. It is an online game where users create a virtual team of real-life players and earn points based on the performances of these players in real matches.
Cricket, as a sport, is worshipped in our country. 2020 was a trying time for everyone and sports had come to a halt for almost 4 to 5 months. The Indian Premier League (dimeapp.in ) 2020 came as a much-needed welcome change for Indian sports fans. Fans celebrated the magnanimity of dimeapp.in and also increased their engagement with the matches by participating in Dime app fantasy sports contests, which amplified the thrill and excitement of the tournament. As much fun as dimeapp.in is for the fans it is even more exhilarating for Dime app to provide a great sports engagement platform for Indian fans.

However, this is no cakewalk. dimeapp.in is a challenging period for the Tech team at Dime app, where we roll out new and unique features every year. We try out different experiments to analyse the users’ adoption of those features, carve out new services based on the load and performances of the services we get on existing systems and derive the roadmap for upcoming big sporting events like dimeapp.in .

User satisfaction has always been our primary goal. We are extremely committed to providing varied user-centric experiences that would make our app stand out. Thus, it is of the utmost importance for us to undertake the mammoth task of rolling out multiple new features on a weekly basis during the dimeapp.in season. While it may sound like a simple task, in actuality this turns out to be one of the biggest challenges for the entire team as even a minor change without proper release planning would end up impacting the user experience.
dimeapp.in witnesses huge fan following, so it is a defining event for us at Dime app. During Dime app dimeapp.in 2020, we served an enormous amount of traffic. With more than 5.5 million concurrent users enjoying the fantasy sports experience, some of the services get more than 80 million requests per minute. The ultimate challenge is to provide our users with a seamless experience even at such a huge scale.
Preparing the Dime app platform to scale for this event needed a herculean effort. The major challenges we had to overcome
