Siraj-ud-Daula was the last independent nawab of Bengal, in order to succeed, Aliwadi One. Was born in 1733, and he died on the 23rd of July, 1757. It’s the end of his reign marks the end of an independent rule in India, and at the beginning of the line is a company that is not for the next two hundred years. His father, Zain-ud-Din, was the governor of Bihar, and his mother, Amina Begum, was the daughter of Alivardi Khan. Alivardi Khan did not have a male heir. In this regard, he was Siraj-ud-Daula, and was raised as the heir to the throne. To receive the necessary training required by the governor of the state. He was very loved by Alivardi Khan. In 1752, a governor was appointed and announced that there would be a Alivardi as the next Nawab of Bengal. However, the announcement has caused a rift in the family, and many of the members of the family turned their backs on him, mostly by his aunt, Ghaseti Begum, Mir Jafar and Shaukat Jung.
Alivardi Khan died in 1756, and was succeeded by Siraj-ud-Daula as the new Nawab of Bengal. At the time, he was only 23-years-old. Even though he was incompetent in the management of public affairs, but he was very energetic and full of enthusiasm. He tried to take the reins of power into his own hands, and appointed to be the favorites in all the important places. He was a very nice and friendly young man, but at the same time, suspicious and skeptical of the people around him. I am familiar only to a few people. In addition, he had a very aggressive mood, which led to some disastrous results. In the place of the young Nawab is to be respected and loved by his subjects, for fear is born in their hearts. He is often mocked of his peers. In addition, he was very strict with his opponents. In order to restore the Ghaseti Begum’s wealth, as it was a matter of concern for him. He is replacing Mir Jafar with Mir Mardan, if Bakhshi. He has also been suppressed Shaukat Ali.
He was the true heir to his grandfather, who never gave the Europeans a little further so that they were able to pose a threat to his power. In his view, the situation was in the South of India, in which the colonial powers, and from the personal rivalry, having started a war, and with the help of the same people. Siraj-ud-Daula continued the same policy. He’s banned in both the French and the British, in order to complete the construction of additional fortifications, built on the eve of the second world war. However, these orders were to be hated by the British, who did not want to have to do it. This is angry with the Nawab, and he said sharply, by the taking of Calcutta. He captured Fort William. The prisoners were placed in the night, in a small room, where most of them died of suffocation. The incident came to be known as ” the Black Hole’s event.
The ‘black hole’, and the loss of kolkata (Calcutta), causing the council at Madras, and to respond to it. They sent an expeditionary force under the command of Sir Robert Clive, who is defended from kolkata (Calcutta), and re-established the council. But at the same time, he realized that the young Nawab, can be a threat to the public interest, and the only way to get it is to protect the interests of the company in order to replace him with a compliant. This is the reason why it was the time of the contract, the alienated peers to get rid of Siraj-ud-Daula. All the necessary preparations, he sent a letter to the Nawab, in which he claimed that he was in breach of the Treaty of Alinagar with by the granting of asylum to the French territory. In all circumstances, be prepared to clear the way for the fight against Plassi. Even though the Nawab fought bravely, and were close to the victory, and the sudden death of Mir Mardan has changed its victory in the fall. Mir ja’far betrayed him, and, in the end, the Nawab was killed. This has led to the creation of the company was in a dominant position in fast food restaurants, it was the creation of the British Empire in India.
Siraj-ud-Daula, is hailed as a hero when he fought against the British, and would not bow down to them, and even cost him his life. However, there is a different way of looking at the truth.
