प्लासी के युद्ध (1757) में अपनी विजय के बाद अंग्रेजों ने बंगाल का नवाब किसे नियुक्त किया था?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Mir Jafar/ मीर जाफर
Explanation:
After the Battle of Plassey on 23 June 1757, the British East India Company defeated Siraj-ud-Daulah, the Nawab of Bengal. The victory was made possible largely because Mir Jafar, Siraj-ud-Daulah's commander-in-chief, betrayed him and secretly supported the British led by Robert Clive. As a reward, the British appointed Mir Jafar as the Nawab of Bengal.
The Battle of Plassey marked the beginning of British political dominance in India.
