Question

Causes of batttle of plassey

Answer 1

Answer:

The main causes of the Battle of Plassey were:

• The British East India Company wanted to establish a puppet ruler on the throne of Bengal. Knowing about this, Siraj-ud-daulah ordered the Company to not interfere in his matters. But the Company disapproved. Over- interference of the Company became the main cause of the Battle of Plassey.

• Secondly, when company disagreed, Siraj-ud-daulah marched and was successful in attacking the English factory at Kassim Bazar. When Company in Calcutta got this news, they sent an army under Robert Clive and defeated the Nawab at Plassey.

• This defeat was possible because Mir Jafar, the commander of Siraj-ud-daulah cheated on him and supported the British.
