उत्तर
To strengthen his position, Mir Qasim improved Bengal's financial position and raised a modern, disciplined, and well-equipped army trained by Europeans. The company's employees misused their trade privileges.
They sold their duty-free trade points to Indian merchants who also used them to carry on duty-free trade. This deprived the Nawab of large revenues. To put an end to the corrupt practices of the British, Mir Qasim abolished all duties on internal trade.
