Reason for the battle of Plassey 
1. In 1756, Sirajuddaulah became the nawab of Bengal.

2. The Company was worried about his power and keened on a puppet ruler who would willingly give trade concessions and other privileges.
3. So it tried, though without success, to help one of Sirajuddaulah's rivals become the nawab.
4. An infuriated Sirajuddaulah asked the Company to stop meddling in the political affairs of his dominion, stop fortification, and pay the revenues
