battle of Plassey was fought between English governor general Robert Clive and Shuja ud Daulah ( between Calcutta and murshidabad).Mir Zafar who wanted to become the Nawab, bribed Indian soldiers to throw away their weapons.clive won the battle

Clive made Mir Zafar the Nawab for better control over bengal.Mir Zafar gifted huge sums of money and 24 Parganas to the British.Mir Zafar couldn't fullfill British army's constant demand and ran away. British made Mir Qasim son in law of Mir Zafar the Nawab.Mir Qasim have equal opportunities to the British and Indian army , this humiliated the British and they attacked him
