Answer 2

Mir Qasim was initially very generous and friendly with the British, but after a few years, he refused to accept their control. The hostility between the British and Mir Qasim increased and the British declared a war. Mir Qasim lost the war and fled to Akash, soliciting support from Shuja-ud-Daulah, Nawab of Awadh and Shah Alam II, the then Mughal Emperor. The combined forces of these three fought with the British army in Bicar, but were defeated. They had to pay heavy price, including a major concession in terms of revenue collections rights or diwani of Bengal. The Battle of Buxar was a singularly important event in Indian history.
