Colonial Age and the Liberation War of Bengal

Though the European Traders came to Bengal for the purpose of trade and commerce, they came into our state power later. Among them, the British East India Company went a step ahead in the competition. At that time, they ascended the throne of Bengal by defeating the Nawab of Bengal-Bihar-Orissa, Siraj Ud-Doula in 1757. The rule of the English continues in Bengal till 1947. Thus, the system of government that came into power in 1757 in Bengal is called colonial rule. The rule of the English from 1757 to 1947 is known as the colonial age.
