14th (Meerut) Cavalry Brigade

The 14th (Meerut) Cavalry Brigade was a renowned formation of the British Indian Army, primarily active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Established as part of the cavalry reorganization following the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the brigade played a crucial role in maintaining colonial security and facilitating military operations across the subcontinent. Stationed in Meerut, a significant military center, the brigade participated in various campaigns, including the First World War, where its units were integral to cavalry operations in diverse theatres. Post-independence, the brigade was disbanded, but its legacy endures in the history of military operations in India, symbolizing the evolution of cavalry tactics and the broader geopolitical dynamics of the era.
