Question

what was the change in company policy after getting the diwani of bengal

Answer 1

After the death of Mir Jafar, in 1765, the then Mughal Emperor Shah Alam II granted the Diwani rights of the provinces of Bengal to the Company. This was a major breakthrough for the Company because Diwani allowed it to use the vast revenue resources of Bengal.

Answer 2

After acquiring the Diwani rights of Bengal through the treaty of Allahabad, the company decided to remove dastak as a change in company policy. Dastak was the pass given to company officials for carrying out trade in India.

Explanation:  

• The company got the right to collect the tax. Issuing dastak to the company officials would be a loss to the treasury of the company as with mere fees the pass was acquired to carry out trade.
• The company could not afford such a loss. So, it decided to remove dastak and in return was given complete rights over the revenue of Bengal resources.
• This revenue was utilized in carrying out the affairs of company and export.
