The Battle of Plassey
Explanation:
After Robert Clive’s victory at Plassey (June 1757), the East India Company secured control over Bengal’s revenue and installed a compliant ruler, which gave it the political and financial base for rapid territorial expansion in India. The later Battle of Buxar (1764) further consolidated British dominance over Bengal, Bihar, and Odisha.
