Answer 1

The Battle of Plassey was a decisive victory of the British East India Company over the Nawab of Bengal and his French allies on 23 June 1757. The battle consolidated the Company's presence in Bengal, which later expanded to cover much of India over the next hundred years.

Answer 2

The Battle of Plassey was important because of the impact it had on who would control India.  Before this battle, the British East India Company, the French, and independent Indian rulers were all vying for control of various parts of the country.  In this battle, the British company (led by Robert Clive, who then became famous as "Clive of India) defeated the French and an independent Indian ruler, the Nawab of Bengal.  This battle gave the British control over much of Bengal and, by extension, helped them to become the dominant colonial power in India.
