The battle took place at Palashi

(Anglicised version: Plassey) on the

Calcutta and south of Murshidabad,

then capital of Bengal (now in Nadia

belligerents were the Nawab

Sirajuddaulah, the last independent

Nawab of Bengal, and the British

East India Company. Siraj-ud-

Bengal the year before, and he

ordered the English to stop the

extension of their fortification.

commander in chief of the Nawab's

army, and also promised him to

make him Nawab of Bengal. He

defeated the Nawab at Plassey in

1757 and captured Calcutta.

Answer 2

As a result of denial of trading rights, on 23rd June 1757, Battle of Plassey was fought and it was the first major victory of English in India.

Alivardi Khan died in 1756 and Sirajuddaulah became the Nawab of Bengal.

In 1757, Robert Clive led the Company’s army against Sirajuddaulah at Plassey.

Main reason for defeat of the Nawab was that the forces led by Mir Jafar, one of Sirajuddaulah’s commanders, betrayed sirajuddaula and never fought the battle.

Mir Jafar was promised by Clive to be made Nawab after crushing Sirajuddaulah.

As par the deal Mir Jafar became the nawab of Bengal after the defeat and death of Sirajuddaula. But he was the nominal head of Bengal and actual power remained in the hands of British.
