The rise of British power in Bengal

in #history7 years ago

Some countries of Europe had strong naval power. They aimed at expanding trade and
commerce.The eastern countries of the world, especially India were their target.With
this purpose
The British East India Company was established in England in
1600 A.D. This company established a commercial base at Hoogley in 1651 and at
Kashimbaazar in 1658IMG_20171218_115158_071.jpg
The British East India Company started to strengthen their hold gradually and at one
time they started to influence the administration of the Nawab. Nawab Alibardee died
in1756. After his death, there arose a dispute about the heir to the throne among the
members of Nawab family and the aristocrats of the court. The officers of The British
East India Company took advantage of the dispute.The British traders joined with the
conspirators against the young Nawab. Prominent among these conspirators were
Ghosety Begum,Mir Jafar,Mir Kadim and some members of rich elites like
Womichand, Jagat Sheth and Raj Ballav....IMG_20171218_115251_600.jpg
Great majority number of people during The British rule (1858-1947) were farmers...
on the other hand, a small minority was the privileged Zamindar class. The number of
people connected with cottage and small industries was very few. Agriculture, the
backbone of economy was almost ruined during The British rule. The same was the
case with the weaving industry which was once very famous. The business
community of Bengal was not organized. The condition of Bengal in industry was
also not worth mentioning.The women-folk lagged behind due to social norms and
superstitions.The middle class society also could not become powerful. At that time,
Britain was the richest country of the world. While India was a British colony- and a
place of exploitation....
