The Battle of Plassey, 23 June 1757, was a decisive British East India Company victory over the Nawab of Bengal and his French allies, establishing Company rule in South Asia which expanded over much of the Indies for the next 190 years. The battle took place at Palashi, Bengal, on the river banks of the Bhagirathi River, about 150 km north of Calcutta, near Murshidabad, then capital of undivided Bengal. The belligerents were Siraj-ud-daulah, the last independent Nawab of Bengal, and the British East India Company.

The battle in name only, was won by Metropolis before it was fought. It is worth to say that the cards were played before the game begins. It was an important land mark not only in the Bengal politics but in the India as a whole. The power shifted from the Indigenous Nawabs to the Cruel governors.
