The Battle of Buxar (1764) was the decisive battle which was fought between English Forces, and combined army of Mir Kasim, the Nawab of Bengal, Nawab of Oudh Shah Alam II and Mughal Emperor. The battle was the outcome of misuse of Farman and Dastak, and also the trade expansionist aspiration of English.
Consequences
- Misuse of Farman and Dastak by British which challenged the Mir Qasim’s authority and sovereignty.
- Abolition of all duties on internal trade of British.
- Misbehaviour of the Company’s servant- They compelled the Indian artisans, peasants and merchant to sell their goods at cheap price , and also started the tradition of bribes and gifts.
- Plundering attitude of British which not only abuses the trade ethics but also challenges the Nawab authority.
The battle of Buxar proved itself to be a turning point in the history of India.
- The interest of British was concentrated in the three coastal areas namely Calcutta, Bombay and Madras.
- The Anglo-French wars in Carnatic and the battles of Palasi and Buxar began the period of British conquest of India.
- By 1765, the British had become the virtual rulers of Bengal, Bihar and Odisha.
- The Nawab of Awadh had become dependent on them and so was the Nawab of Carnatic who was their creation.
