How did the acts of lord dalhousie and lord canning inflict a blow to the mughal emperor ???
Answers
Answer:
Company rule in India (sometimes, Company Raj,[2] "raj", lit. "rule" in Hindi[3]) was the rule or dominion of the British East India Company over parts of the Indian subcontinent. This is variously taken to have commenced in 1757, after the Battle of Plassey, when the "puppet" Nawab of Bengal Mir Jafar ceded revenues to the Company;[4] in 1765, when the Company was granted the diwani, or the right to collect revenue, in Bengal and Bihar;[5]
lord dalhousie announced that on death of the king his successor would have to leave the imperial palace( the red fort). later, lord canning made it known that bahadur shah's successor would not be allowed to use imperial title. this is how lord dalhousie and lord canning smacked of discourtesy to the mughal emperor.
