On June 23, 1757, the Battle of Plassey was fought. Mirza Muhammad Siraj ud-Daulah, who was the last independent Nawab of Bengal, lost the battle to the
British militants.
Siraj had given a commercial licence to the British to buy muslins and jute from Bengal. The British manipulated Siraj's ministers and bribed them to stand
against the Nawab.
Siraj was betrayed by his trusted ally Mir Jafar and other ministers. He lost the Battle of Plassey and Bengal lost itself to the western colonisers.

REASON FOR BATTLE OF PLASSEY

* The reason for the Battle of Plassey was that the servants of the company were indulged in abuse of dastaks in inland trade and not
paying duty. However, the immediate reason was the conspiracy of Robert Clive with Mir Jafar. British also started the fortification of
Calcutta which was opposed by the Nawabs.

* On 23 June 1757, with no other option in sight, Siraj-uddaula attacked British forces in the war known as Battle of Plassey. 3,000
British troops met 62,000 of Nawab's army. It was only after the battle began, that the Nawab realized that of his 62,000 troops,
50,000 under the command of Mir Jafar were not fighting
