Answer 2

Answer:

"The Battle of Plassey" was the "first major victory" of the English in India.

Explanation:

The Battle was fought on "23 June 1757" on the banks of the river Bhagirathi, north of present-day Kolkata. This Battle was "fought between" the "East India Company" led by "Robert Clive" and the "Nawab of Bengal, Siraj-Ud-Dulah". The "East India Company won" the battle as they had conspired with a commander of the Nawab’s forces called Mir Jafar who refused to fight the battle. He was made the "Nawab of Bengal" after the battle.
