The Battle of Buxar was fought on 22 October, 1764 between the forces under the command of the British East India Company led by Hector Munro and the combined armies of Mir Qasim, the Nawab of Bengal; the Nawab of Awadh; and the Mughal King Shah Alam II.
The battle fought at Buxar, a "small fortified town" within the territory of Bengal, located on the banks of the Ganges River about 130 km west of Patna, was a decisive victory for the British East India Company.
The British victory at Buxar had, in one go, disposed of the three main scions of Moghul power in Upper India. Mir Qasim disappeared into an impoverished obscurity. Shah Alam realigned himself with the British, and Shuja-ud-Daula fled west, swiftly pursued by the victors. The whole Ganges valley lay at the Company's mercy; Shuja-ud-Daula eventually surrendered; henceforth Company troops became the power-brokers throughout Awadh as well as Bihar
