Answer:
So 'nabob' became an Anglo-Indian term for East India Company servants who became very rich through corrupt trade and other practices.Robert Clive before becoming governor of Bengal in 1764 had become very rich in India because of this he was cross examined by the British parliament in 1772 because the parliament was suspicious of his vast wealth.After the Battle of Plassey, the original nawabs of Bengal were forced to give land and vast sums of money as personal gifts to Company officials.
