It is regarded as “the starting point of British rule in India”.
A great transformation came about in the position of the East India Company in Bengal as it monopolized the trade and commerce of Bengal.
Mir Jafar as the nawab:
After the Battle of Plassey Clive proclaimed Mir Jafar as the Nawab of Bengal and placed him on the throne of Murshidabad.
Mir Jafar thought that with the fall of Siraj he would be the real independent Nawab of Bengal but he did not know that the independence of Bengal was lost at Plassey and that he should have to rule as a puppet of the English Company.
He quietly swallowed insults and oppression and continued to live as a Nawab in title.
