Answer:
The Siege of Calcutta was a battle between the British East India Company, and Siraj ud-Daulah, the Nawab of Bengal in India. The Nawab aimed to recapture the city of Calcutta from European control, after tensions had risen due to the East India Company building fortifications in case of French attack as part of the Seven Years' War. The British were unprepared for the attack on 20 June and Fort William - containing the entire European population of the city - fell almost immediately, leaving the city in Indian hands
