Answer 1

Answer:

The battles of Plassey and Buxar were pivotal moments in modern Indian history, resulting in the strengthening of British power in India.

Explanation:

The battle of Plassey was fought between Robert Clive's East India Company and the Nawab of Bengal (Siraj-Ud-Daulah) and his French troops.

• This fight is generally referred to as the pivotal incident that led to British India's final dominance.
• Siraj was enraged by the widespread abuse of the rights granted to the British by the Nawab of Bengal, which resulted in the Battle of Plassey in 1757.

The battle of Buxar was fought on October 22, 1764, between the combined armies of Mir Qasim and the East India Company.

• This battle became another major success for the company, resulting in the complete subjugation of the provinces of Bengal and Bihar.
• The East India Company gained economic leverage as a result of this.
