EPISODE 3 — The Rise of Siraj-ud-Daula: The Last Independent Nawab of Bengal
Series: The Forgotten Golden Bengal: Rise and Fall of the World’s Richest Province
Channel: QSTv4u
Before the fall of Bengal… before the betrayal… there rose a young ruler who dared to challenge the most powerful empire on earth — Siraj-ud-Daula.
Born in 1733 and personally chosen by his grandfather Alivardi Khan, Siraj was trained for crisis, not comfort. At just 23, he became the Nawab of the richest province in the world — Bengal.
But British ambitions were rising.
Treaty violations. Illegal fortifications. Secret alliances with Mir Jafar, Jagat Seth, and Company loyalists.
The tension exploded when Siraj stormed the British factory at Kasimbazar, sending shockwaves across India.
The British retaliated with a propaganda weapon — the Black Hole of Calcutta — a story still debated by historians today.
Meanwhile, Robert Clive prepared for war.
Bengal now stood at the edge of destiny… the Battle of Plassey was coming.
