Answer:
Clive defeated Siraj-ud-Daulah at Plassey in 1757 and captured Calcutta. ... Siraj-ud-Daulah's army with 50,000 soldiers, 40 cannons and 10 war elephants was defeated by 3,000 soldiers of Col. Robert Clive, owing to the flight of Siraj-ud-Daulah from the battlefield and the inactivity of the conspirators.
