any one in 8th ........ help pls!!



why was sirajuddawlah so easily defeated by the British??

Answer 1

sirajudduwlah was navab of Kolkata and he died by the British because he did a tradery it is black hole of Kolkata is the name of that tradery and sirajudduwlah army is weak comparing to British army and traditional weapons were used by sirajudduwlahs army and British army uses modern arms and weapons

Answer 2

There were two main reasons for it....

➡Firstly, Clive,the British commander, had been in secret negotiations with several of the senior generals in the Indian army about betraying the Nawab of Bengal.Chief amongst these was Mir Jafar,who became Nawab after the battle.An initial attack by the Indian army was pressed only half heartedly, and was easily repulsed by the British. 

➡Secondly, a monsoon storm broke around midday.The British covered their gunpowder,the Indians didn't.Once the storm was over, the firearms in the Indian army were useless, as their powder was wet.A British counterattack then routed the Indian army
