Discussion
Battle of Plassey was between whom?
Answer: C
The Battle of Plassey (23 June 1757) was fought between Siraj ud-Daulah, the Nawab of Bengal, and Robert Clive of the East India Company. Clive had won over Mir Jafar, the Nawab's commander, who stood aside with a large part of the army, and this made the Company's victory easy. Mir Jafar was therefore not an opponent of Clive in the battle, which rules out the second option. Shuja-ud-Daulah, the Nawab of Awadh, and Hector Munro, the Company commander, belong to the Battle of Buxar (1764), so the first and fourth options mix the two battles.
