0:00Jai Jagannath, Jai Maa Samlei. Welcome
0:03to Mukesh Studio. Hope you are all doing
0:06well. So, today's topic is 'Rise of
0:08British Power in India', for which we
0:11will practice 50 super MCQs. This topic
0:14will definitely motivate all the
0:16students.
0:18So, the motivation for today, students,
0:20is to always remember that success does
0:23not depend only on luck, rather success
0:26depends on your dedication, your hard
0:29work, and your strong determination
0:31towards your goals.
0:33Time is very valuable.
0:37The time you spend studying today will
0:39create the identity of your success
0:42tomorrow.
0:44So, do not stop; learn something new
0:48every day.
0:51Whatever is difficult, do not avoid it.
0:55So today, we will discuss a very
0:58interesting and exam-oriented chapter of
1:01history, 'Rise of British Power in India
1:03', how British power rose in India.
1:07Understood? So, there is no theory class
1:09today, kids; we will first practice MCQs
1:12.
1:13For those students who are beginners, I
1:15will bring the theory chapter of 'Rise
1:17of British Power in India' in the next
1:20part, where we will cover everything
1:22that we skipped in these MCQs.
1:25Everyone must already know that it is
1:27already uploaded on the paid batch.
1:30Just try to understand; whenever any
1:32topic comes, first feel what that topic
1:35is trying to say.
1:37Like 'Rise of British Power in India',
1:39India is already there. So, how did
1:41British power gradually rise? It means
1:44that after the Battle of Plassey in the
1:4617th century, the Britishers initially
1:49came only for trade, but gradually they
1:51took over the ruling power of this vast
1:53country, which is the 'Rise of British
1:55Power in India'.
1:57Subsidiary Alliance, Doctrine of Lapse,
2:00the 1764 Battle of Buxar; slowly,
2:03through the 'Drain of Wealth Theory',
2:05they took all the country's diamonds,
2:08sapphires, pearls, and rubies.
2:11So, that topic...(), ().
2:13Through today's MCQs, we will understand
2:15that today, understood?
2:17So, today's first question is: "In which
2:20year did Vasco da Gama reach Calicut on
2:22the western coast of India?"
2:25So the question is: In which year did
2:27Vasco da Gama reach the place called
2:29Calicut on the western coast of India?
2:33Calicut, which is currently known as
2:35Kerala, is what it is called.
2:38Who was Vasco da Gama, kids? Vasco da
2:40Gama was a Portuguese. He was a
2:42Portuguese sailor.
2:44That sea route was through the southern
2:47tip of Africa, the Cape of Good Hope,
2:50and reached Calicut in India.
2:53That was in the year 1498. I hope
2:57everyone understands. Vasco da Gama from
3:00Europe reached the western coast of
3:03India in 1498.
3:05Next question: "Which European power was
3:08the first to establish a major maritime
3:10trading presence in India by sailing
3:13around the Cape of Good Hope?"
3:15Look, this is the same question I just
3:17mentioned.
3:19This means which European power was the
3:22first to establish a major trading
3:25center in India by finding a sea route
3:28via the Cape of Good Hope?
3:32The first were the Portuguese, and that
3:35was Vasco da Gama.
3:37Look, it's not the English; the English
3:40came in 1600, while Vasco da Gama came
3:43in 1498.
3:44It's not the French, the French came in
3:471664.
3:48The Dutch came in 1602, so out of the
3:51remaining options, the answer is
3:53Portuguese. Next, third question: "In
3:56which year was the English East India
3:59Company established under a Royal
4:01Charter?" It was a Royal Charter, not a
4:05character.
4:07This asks in which year the English East
4:09India Company was established with royal
4:12permission.
4:14We know the East India Company came to
4:16India in the year 1600. Vasco da Gama
4:19came in 1498, and in 1600, the East
4:22India Company came. In 1602, the Dutch
4:26came, and in 1664, the French East India
4:29Company came.
4:31Next, fourth question: "Who granted the
4:33Royal Charter to the English East India
4:35Company in 1600?" This is the question.
4:38So, children, who granted the royal
4:40permission to the English East India
4:42Company in 1600?
4:43That means, who provided it? Who did it
4:45, children? Queen Elizabeth I did it.
4:48Understood?
4:50Queen Elizabeth was the Queen of England
4:52, known as Elizabeth I, she did it.
4:56She did it on December 31, 1600. She
5:00granted a royal charter to the company.
5:03Through this, the company received the
5:06right to conduct commercial trade in
5:09Eastern countries.
5:11The other options are incorrect. Queen
5:13Victoria, King Charles II, and King
5:16James II are wrong. Next, fifth question
5:19, children: "The Dutch East India
5:20Company was established in which year?"
5:23We just read it was in 1602.
5:26Next, sixth question: "Which French
5:29minister was mainly responsible for
5:31establishing the French East India
5:33Company in 1664?"
5:37This means which French minister played
5:40the main role in establishing the French
5:43East India Company in 1664?
5:47Look, is it Cardinal Richelieu, Napoleon
5:50Bonaparte, or the Duke of Wellington?
5:53It was Jean-Baptiste Colbert who did it
5:56.
5:58This portion says, 1664, it was
6:02established by the French East India
6:05Company, by a French minister named
6:09Colbert, who aimed to strengthen
6:12France's economy and commerce management
6:16.
6:18Next question: Which English official is
6:22traditionally associated with the
6:25establishment of the English trading
6:29settlement at Calicut or Kolkata?
6:33It means, which English official's name
6:35is traditionally linked with the
6:37establishment of the English trading
6:40center in Kolkata?
6:42Students, we know the English trading in
6:45Kolkata is not from the 1498 period, is
6:48it?
6:50Look, we can find the answer by looking
6:52at the options and using the elimination
6:54method, for instance, Robert Clive.
6:57Robert Clive, well, Robert Clive was
6:59after the Battle of Plassey, so this is
7:01out. Warren Hastings was the first
7:03Governor-General of Bengal, so this
7:05option is also out.
7:07Lord Wellesley was involved with the
7:08Subsidiary Alliance.
7:10, (): It is here, but what is the answer
7:11?
7:13The answer is Job Charnock, who was
7:15traditionally linked with the
7:17establishment of the English trading
7:19center in Kolkata.
7:22Next, question number eight: Which of
7:24the following was the principal purpose
7:26of the early European trading companies
7:28in India?
7:30It asks, what was the main objective of
7:32the early European trading companies
7:34coming to India?
7:36Obviously, they came to trade and to
7:39make profits.
7:40So look at the options: To introduce
7:42universal adult franchise? Certainly not
7:45. To establish a government? They were
7:47not here to establish a government. The
7:48next one says: To promote
7:49industrialization in India?
7:51This might seem correct, but it is not,
7:54because their goal was not just to
7:56promote industrialization, so this
7:58option is also incorrect.
8:00Next says: To obtain profits through
8:02overseas trade.
8:04They aimed to trade all the spices,
8:07textiles, and materials from India to
8:10generate high-level profits; that was
8:13their goal.
8:16Their priority was not to promote
8:18industrialization in the country or to
8:21run the government.
8:24They were here for trade and commerce,
8:26not to provide universal adult franchise
8:28or voting rights. So, the main answer is
8:31for profit.
8:33Next question, question number nine:
8:36Which English settlement became
8:38particularly important for the company's
8:41trade on the Coromandel Coast?
8:45We know, look, it's a geographical term
8:48, Coromandel Coast, so it is asking
8:50which center was specifically important
8:53for the English East India Company's
8:56trade on the Coromandel Coast.
8:59It was important, it had significance,
9:01it says.
9:02Is the Coromandel Coast on the western
9:04side, do you see the Coromandel Coast on
9:05the western side? So, look at the
9:07location.
9:09The main concept was actually that the
9:10Coromandel Coast was the main center for
9:12trade, and that was Madras.
9:14The Coromandel Coast was a major
9:15commercial center, which was Madras, but
9:17what about Surat? Surat is in Gujarat,
9:19and in the given options, it basically
9:21has no impact. There was Bombay, Bombay
9:23or Mumbai was a major center on the west
9:25coast, but...It wasn't important either
9:27. Calcutta, present-day Kolkata, was the
9:29main center for the British in Bengal.
9:32Even then, the most important place on
9:35the Coromandel Coast was Madras.
9:38Let's move to the next.
9:42Which fort became the principal English
9:45stronghold at Madras?
9:48In Madras, which was the main fort, the
9:50principal fort of the English?
9:53It was Fort St. George. It was, yes,
9:57Fort St. George was in Madras.
10:01When was the main fort of the English in
10:03Madras established?
10:05It was established in 1644. Question:
10:09Fort St. George was established in 1644
10:12.
10:13Let's move to the next question, number
10:1611: The Carnatic Wars. Such questions
10:19are found in B.Ed exams. Not just B.Ed,
10:22it is also important for Odisha Police
10:24exams and is a part of Modern History.
10:27The Carnatic Wars, the Carnatic Wars
10:29were primarily fought between which two
10:32European powers in India?
10:35So kids, who were the ones in the
10:37Carnatic Wars?
10:39Kids, you won't find it fought between
10:41the English and the Portuguese, nor was
10:44it the Portuguese, so who were they?
10:47It was the English and the French. Look
10:50at the options given; Portuguese was one
10:52, English was another. So you look at
10:54the options and guess it might be the
10:56English and the Portuguese, but no!
10:59It was between the English and the
11:00French, the Carnatic Wars were fought
11:02between the English and the French. See
11:05, the Portuguese and the Dutch were
11:07European powers, kids, but there was
11:10never a war between them. It wasn't the
11:12English and the Portuguese, so that
11:14option is out, that option is cut. There
11:16was also no war seen between the Dutch
11:18and the Danish.
11:20The main thing was the Carnatic Wars,
11:22which were seen between the English and
11:24the French.
11:27Next: Which French Governor-General in
11:29India played a prominent role in the
11:31Carnatic Wars?
11:33Kids, look at the options: In the
11:36Carnatic Wars that took place in India,
11:39which French administrator played a
11:42leading role?
11:44Was it Colbert? Was it Bussy?
11:46It was Dupleix.
11:50Dupleix built up French power in India
11:53and was the main leader of the French in
11:56the Carnatic Wars.
11:58Who was he? Dupleix.
12:02Dupleix is the one we are talking about
12:03.

13:43Kids, without wasting time, let's go
13:45straight to the topic. Which battle in
13:471746 resulted in the French capture of
13:50Madras during the First Carnatic War?
13:53What does this say? During the First
13:55Carnatic War in 1746, as a result of
13:58which battle did the French capture
14:00Madras? See, Battle of Plassey, that is
14:03not Carnatic War, Battle of Plassey is
14:05not it, Battle of Wandiwash is not it,
14:08Battle of Buxar is not it, 1764, the
14:10remaining option is Battle of Madras.
14:13Madras, you got the First Carnatic War
14:16in 1746,
14:20Sorry 1700, 1746, 1746 after that, 1757
14:25.
14:28Then 1760, after 1760, 1764 came, so
14:311746 was Madras, after Madras came
14:34Plassey.
14:35Plassey. Then in 1760 Wandiwash, after
14:38Wandiwash came the Battle of Buxar.
14:41Now let's target the next 14th question
14:43, "Which treaty ended the First Carnatic
14:46War in 1748?"
14:48What does this say, that 1748?
14:52By which treaty did the First Carnatic
14:55War end?
14:56After which war, which treaty was seen,
15:00which treaty was seen that ended the
15:03First Carnatic War? Is it Treaty of
15:06Allahabad? Allahabad is not it, it came
15:09after 1757.
15:11Then look at Treaty of Paris, Treaty of
15:13Paris is also a treaty that closed in
15:161763.
15:18Next is Treaty of Salbai, this was
15:19between the British and the Marathas.
15:21The last option was the Treaty of
15:26Aix-la-Chapelle, which was the treaty
15:31that concluded the Carnatic War of 1748
15:37.
15:38Next is question number 15, "The Third
15:41Carnatic War ended with which major
15:43battle?"
15:441760.
15:48The major battle that was the deciding
15:51factor of the Third Carnatic War.
15:54The Third Carnatic War, the Battle of
15:57Wandiwash. The Battle of Arcot, the
15:59Battle of Arcot took place in 1751,
16:02which is associated with Robert Clive.
16:05The Battle of Plassey took place in 1757
16:07, during the time of Nawab
16:08Siraj-ud-Daulah.
16:10The Battle of Buxar took place in 1764,
16:12where the English defeated a powerful
16:15alliance.
16:16Understood, the last option is the
16:18correct one.
16:19Next, question number 16: "Who was the
16:21Nawab of Bengal during the Battle of
16:23Plassey in 1757?"
16:25This is an extremely important question
16:28, and there is a very high possibility
16:30of it appearing in the 2027 exam.
16:33Who was the Nawab of Bengal during the
16:35Battle of Plassey in 1757?
16:37It was Siraj-ud-Daulah.
16:40He was the one who was the Nawab of
16:42Bengal during the war. Next is question
16:46number 17: "The Battle of Plassey was
16:47fought on which date?" When was it? It
16:50was on June 23, 1757.
16:54October 22, 1764 was the Battle of Buxar
16:59, August 12, 1765 was the grant of
17:03Diwani rights, and May 10, 1857 was the
17:07mutiny.
17:10Next, let's move to question number 18:
17:12"Who led the English East India Company
17:15forces at the Battle of Plassey?" Who
17:18led the East India Company forces in the
17:21Battle of Plassey? It was Robert Clive.
17:23Understood? Not Warren Hastings, not
17:25Lord Cornwallis, not Lord Dalhousie. Who
17:27was Warren Hastings? He was the
17:29Governor-General of Bengal. Who was Lord
17:31Cornwallis?
17:33He was the one who introduced the
17:35Permanent Settlement in 1793.
17:38Lord Dalhousie was famous for the
17:41Doctrine of Lapse. Question number 19
17:44directly, students; the video is getting
17:45long, so we will do the questions and
17:46answers directly. Which person betrayed
17:49and played a major role in the defeat of
17:52Siraj at the Battle of Plassey?
17:54Who betrayed Siraj during the Battle of
17:57Plassey?
17:59It was Mir Jafar. The Battle of Plassey
18:03was fought between Robert Clive and
18:05Siraj. Who was in Siraj's party when it
18:08happened? It was Mir Jafar.
18:10So, this Mir Jafar was the main leader;
18:13he was a key commander who betrayed the
18:16army and left Siraj's party to join
18:19Robert Clive's party.
18:22Because of this, Siraj's side weakened,
18:24and Siraj lost the Battle of Plassey.
18:28Understood!
18:30Next is question number 20: Who became
18:33the Nawab of Bengal after the Battle of
18:35Plassey with Company support?
18:38I told you kids that Siraj-ud-Daulah
18:40lost, that was the Battle of Plassey.
18:42The Nawab of Bengal after him was Mir
18:45Qasim. I mean sorry, who am I calling
18:47Mir Qasim, kids, it's Mir Jafar. That
18:49was just a typing mistake, a
18:51pronunciation error.
18:54Since he betrayed Siraj-ud-Daulah, after
18:57the betrayal, Mir Jafar became the Nawab
19:00of Bengal in his place.
19:02Understood? Who was it? Mir Jafar. Then
19:05after Mir Jafar, Mir Qasim became the
19:08Nawab of Bengal. So, ask the question,
19:10after Mir Jafar, who was it, Mir Qasim?
19:13Yes! Next: The Battle of Buxar was
19:16fought in which year? In which year did
19:18the Battle of Buxar happen? It was 1764
19:21. Understood?
19:231764, look at the questions, such
19:24questions will be asked.
19:27Plassey, the Battle of Plassey, 1765
19:29Diwani rights, under whom were they?
19:32Diwani rights were within Bengal, Bihar
19:35, and Odisha. 1773 was the Regulating
19:38Act, kids, understood? By the East India
19:41Company. Next 22, ()(): Question number
19:44: "Which combinations correctly identify
19:47the three principal Indian rulers who
19:50opposed the Company in the Battle of
19:53Buxar?".
19:54Meaning, who were the three main Indian
19:57rulers who fought against the East India
20:00Company in the Battle of Buxar?
20:02Do you know who?
20:05One was Mir Qasim, Mir Qasim.
20:10The next one was Suja-ud-Daulah, and the
20:14next one was Shah Alam II.
20:18Battle of Plassey? Plassey, yes, after
20:20Plassey you will see the Battle of Buxar
20:22. Who was the Nawab during the Battle of
20:24Buxar? After Mir Jafar, Mir Qasim was
20:25the Nawab. Mir Qasim, along with him,
20:28Mir Qasim, and then Suja-ud-Daulah and
20:30Shah Alam II; these three people
20:32participated together in the Battle of
20:34Buxar.
20:35Against them was Robert Clive, Robert
20:38Clive versus Mir Qasim, Shah
20:40Suja-ud-Daulah, and Shah Alam II.
20:44So in our options, Siraj-ud-Daulah is
20:47gone, Bahadur Shah Zafar is gone, and
20:50Hyder Ali is also gone.
20:53Option number three is correct.
20:57Study in such a way that any type of
20:59question asked, you can figure it out.
21:03Practice these questions well. One mark
21:06is for sure, one mark is absolutely
21:08compulsory.
21:09These questions are not just made by AI
21:12or ChatGPT.
21:15These questions are made by looking at
21:17the ones repeatedly asked in previous
21:19exams and B.Ed. entrance exams.
21:21Research everything, work on every
21:24single question, go through every
21:26chapter, and cover all the chapter-wise
21:28MCQs.
21:30The challenge I am giving, the 199 batch
21:33is not just cheap, don't take it lightly
21:36.
21:37So, take the 199 PDF.
21:40See here, just ask those who have
21:42qualified for B.Ed. about the pattern
21:44and how the selected questions were
21:45given.
21:46Bravery in words is not enough, students
21:49; it is essential.
21:50Those who watched the uploaded video
21:53found 45 questions that were completely
21:57accurate.
21:59I hope the questions in the series were
22:01helpful for the Odisha Police exam,
22:04covering Odia, English, SST, and even
22:07Reasoning; those who watched it know.
22:11We recently covered a topic:
22:13Alphabetical Series.
22:15The Alphabetical Series is a question
22:17that appeared in the 2024 Odisha Police
22:19Constable exam.
22:22I hope you saw the direct question, "
22:23Who was the Mughal Emperor at the time
22:25of the Battle of Buxar?"
22:27Say.
22:30During the Battle of Buxar, who was the
22:32Mughal Emperor?
22:35In the Battle of Buxar, it was Shah Alam
22:38II, understand?
22:40Study the theory well, then you will
22:42know. Theory will come in the next class
22:45, because you didn't ask for theory
22:47earlier.
22:49I am mainly telling you that if you
22:51don't support a teacher and don't share
22:53the videos, how will you have fun?
22:56Everyone just wants to practice
22:59questions, so I am thinking of uploading
23:02the theory directly for 199, not on
23:04YouTube, and since everyone kept asking
23:07in the comments, I will upload the
23:10theory on YouTube.
23:12No other YouTube channel has videos with
23:1545-plus accurate questions like mine.
23:18Any channel, no matter how big, with
23:21400k followers or 39k followers, but I
23:24only have 2k followers.
23:27My channel has very important and strong
23:30content; if you just go through the MCQs
23:33once or twice, the B.Ed entrance will be
23:37easy for you.
23:39The next question is, "Which battle is
23:42generally considered to have established
23:45the Company's military superiority more
23:48decisively over major Indian political
23:51powers than the Battle of Plassey?"
23:57In this context, compared to the Battle
24:00of Plassey, which battle established the
24:03English Company’s military and political
24:06superiority more firmly over major
24:09Indian powers?
24:13The answer is the Battle of Buxar,
24:15because the other options don't fit; the
24:18Battle of Swally was in 1612, the Battle
24:21of Wandiwash was in 1760, and the Battle
24:24of Arcot was in 1751, but the Battle of
24:26Buxar was in 1764.
24:31In this war, the Company’s political and
24:34military power in India was established
24:38on a much larger scale.
24:42Question number 25: In which year did
24:44the East India Company obtain the Diwani
24:47rights for Bengal, Bihar, and Odisha?
24:50This is the most, most, most important
24:52question. When was it? It was 1765,
24:54understand?
24:56In 1765, an agreement was reached
24:59between Mughal Emperor Shah Alam II and
25:01the East India Company, granting them
25:04the rights to collect revenue from
25:06Bengal, Bihar, and Odisha, which came to
25:09be known as Diwani rights.
25:12Everything regarding this was handed
25:14over to Robert Clive.
25:16Question number 26: Who granted Diwani
25:18rights to the East India Company under
25:20the Treaty of Allahabad?
25:22According to the Treaty of Allahabad,
25:25who granted the East India Company the
25:29Diwani rights—was it Shah Alam II?
25:34Because they were fighting against
25:36Robert Clive, and Shah Alam II had
25:38surrendered, they reached this agreement
25:41; I am just clarifying that.
25:44Next, question number 27: What did
25:47Diwani rights primarily allow the East
25:50India Company to do? What was the
25:53primary authority that the Diwani rights
25:55granted to the East India Company?
25:59At that time, the Diwani rights for
26:01Bengal, Bihar, and Odisha meant the
26:04Company could collect revenue; they were
26:06appointed by the Mughal Emperor, not to
26:09control all religious institutions, nor
26:12to abolish Indian kingdoms, but to
26:14collect revenue from the designated
26:16territories.
26:19In all the territories at that time,
26:22they collected land revenue from the
26:24farmers based on their production; once
26:27they received the Diwani rights, the
26:30Company gained the right to collect
26:32revenue from Bengal, Bihar, and Odisha.
26:36Okay, I hope you understand. The Treaty
26:38of Allahabad was concluded in which year
26:40? When was it, students? The Diwani or
26:42the Treaty of Allahabad was in 1765,
26:44after what?
26:45After the 1764 Battle of Buxar.
26:50After the Battle of Buxar, there was a
26:52treaty, an agreement, which was the
26:54Treaty of Allahabad.
26:56Next: Who introduced the dual government
26:58system in Bengal in 1765?
27:00These are very important questions; mark
27:03these questions with a star, read them
27:05thoroughly, and practice them two or
27:08three times.
27:09Have faith in these questions; practice
27:11the previous years 'papers, as you will
27:14see all these questions there.
27:17Look at the previous year's questions,
27:19students; the dual government system was
27:21introduced by Robert Clive, while Warren
27:23Hastings ended it—wait, that was dual
27:25government.
27:28Sorry, sorry, that was in 1772, he
27:31abolished the dual system; Robert Clive
27:34introduced it, and Lord...wait.
27:38In 1793, the Permanent Settlement was
27:41introduced by Lord Cornwallis, that was
27:44a policy that...
27:49Like the Subsidiary Alliance, which was
27:52Lord Wellesley.
27:54Question number 30, who abolished the
27:56dual government system in Bengal in 1772
27:59? Who abolished it in 1772, students? As
28:01I said, Warren Hastings; who brought the
28:03dual government? Robert Clive. Who
28:05abolished it? Warren Hastings. Who
28:07abolished everything, who was it—Warren
28:13Hastings or Robert Clive?
28:19Which act was passed by the British
28:21Parliament in 1773 to regulate the East
28:23India Company's administration?
28:26So, what does the question say?
28:28The question means, which law or act was
28:31passed to control the company's rule in
28:341773?
28:36Look, 1813 is an option, 1858 is an
28:40option; this leaves a 50-50 probability
28:44.
28:45So, the Pitt's India Act was in 1784;
28:47where did the other options go?
28:50This option went, that option went, the
28:52other option went. Our right option is
28:54the Regulating Act.
28:56Those who look at the first questions,
28:59they already provide half the answers.
29:02Understood? In 1784, the Pitt's India
29:05Act was implemented.
29:08The Charter Act was passed in 1813,
29:10where 1 lakh was given for education.
29:14In 1858, it went to the British Crown,
29:16and the company's rule ended, understood
29:18?
29:19So, this concept, why the Regulating Act
29:21? The Regulating Act was in 1773.
29:25In that year, the East India Company was
29:27trading in India, but later it started
29:30taking over governance and revenue.
29:34So, to control the corruption and
29:36mismanagement in the company, the
29:38British government passed a law—that Act
29:40of 1773 for the East India Company.
29:44That is called the Regulating Act of
29:461773.
29:47Next, question number 32, "Who became
29:49the first Governor-General of Bengal
29:51under the Regulating Act?" It asks,
29:53according to the Regulating Act of 1773
29:56, who was the first Governor-General of
29:58Bengal? Who was it? It was Warren
30:00Hastings. Lord Cornwallis was in 1793,
30:05Understood, he introduced the civil
30:08services system.
30:10Robert Clive was there for the Battle of
30:12Plassey, and then came the Subsidiary
30:14Alliance.
30:15Next, moving to the next question,
30:16question number 33, "Pitt's India Act
30:18was passed in?"
30:20Pitt's India Act 1784, 1773 Regulating
30:24Act, 1793 Charter Act, 1813, the Charter
30:28Act comes every twenty years, right?
30:33That means in 1793, the Permanent
30:36Settlement was introduced.
30:39Question number 34, "Which institution
30:42was established by Pitt's India Act to
30:45exercise greater control over the
30:47company's political affairs?"
30:50It asks, according to Pitt's India Act,
30:53which institution was set up to control
30:55the company's political affairs?
30:58It was the' Board of Control 'that was
31:00formed. Understood? There were two—the
31:03Board of Control, and another court was
31:05formed, the Federal Court. The Federal
31:07Court is related to the Public Service
31:08Commission, which is in the
31:10Constitutional Assembly.
31:11Under the Pitt's India Act, the Board of
31:13Control was set up to control the
31:15company's political affairs.
31:17This organization monitored all
31:19administrative and executive powers of
31:22the company on behalf of the British
31:24government regarding Indian affairs.
31:27Next, question number 35: "Who
31:29introduced the Permanent Settlement in
31:31Bengal in 1793?" Who did it? Lord
31:34Cornwallis. He was the first Governor of
31:37Bengal. Lord Wellesley introduced the
31:39Subsidiary Alliance.
31:41Dalhousie introduced the Doctrine of
31:43Lapse; he also established the railways
31:45in 1853.
31:50Next: "Under the Permanent Settlement,
31:52who were primarily recognized as the
31:54land owners responsible for paying fixed
31:57land revenue to the Company?"
31:59What was this, students? There was a
32:01Sunset Law.
32:03Whoever knows about the Sunset Law, tell
32:06me; it is your homework.
32:09So, the question asks about the
32:11Permanent Settlement.
32:12It asks: "In the Permanent Settlement
32:14system, who was recognized as the
32:16landowner?"
32:18"Not the village artisans, not the money
32:21lenders, but the Zamindars."
32:24It meant that under the Permanent
32:27Settlement, the owners of the land were
32:31not the farmers, village artisans, or
32:35money lenders, but the Zamindars.
32:41Next, question number 37: "Which land
32:44revenue system is associated with Thomas
32:47Munro and was implemented extensively in
32:49parts of Southern India?"
32:52This asks, which land system is
32:54associated with Thomas Munro? Students,
32:57Thomas Munro is associated with the
32:58Ryotwari system. So, Thomas Munro is
33:02linked to the Ryotwari system.
33:06TR, remember the TR relationship.
33:09Permanent Settlement is Lord Cornwallis
33:12; the Mahalwari system specifically
33:14involved the village or' Mahal '. The
33:16Ijaradari system was for revenue
33:18collection, a contract system.
33:20Next, question number 38: "The Mahalwari
33:23system was primarily associated with
33:25which region during the British rule?"
33:28This asks, in which region was the
33:30Mahalwari system mainly prevalent during
33:32British rule?
33:34In which area was it prevalent? In which
33:37region did it exist? Students, just look
33:40at the options.
33:42The whole of Southern India; this was
33:44East, this was West, this was North, and
33:47this was South.
33:49So, the system was basically implemented
33:51in the North-Western provinces.
33:54This system, called the Mahalwari system
33:57, existed in parts of the North-Western
33:59provinces or North India.
34:02Next: "Which policy was used by Lord
34:04Wellesley to extend British political
34:06control over the Indian princely states
34:09?"
34:10This asks, through which policy did Lord
34:12Wellesley expand British control over
34:15the princely states?
34:18The Doctrine of Lapse was Dalhousie's.
34:21Look at the options. Permanent
34:22Settlement is ruled out, Subsidiary
34:24Alliance was Lord Wellesley's; that is
34:27the right option. The Vernacular Press
34:29Act was in 1878; that option is also
34:31ruled out.
34:34Next, question number 40: "Which Indian
34:36ruler was defeated by the British in the
34:39Fourth Anglo-Mysore War?" What about
34:421799?
34:43Do it all, have you read the First
34:45Anglo-Mysore War?
34:47When did the First, Second, and Third
34:48Anglo-Mysore Wars take place?
34:52That is your homework.
34:55So, let's proceed.
34:58In the fourth Anglo-Mysore War, which
35:01Indian ruler was defeated, students?
35:04Tipu Sultan was defeated. Tipu Sultan
35:07was the ruler of Mysore.
35:09He was killed in the battle of
35:11Seringapatam in 1799.
35:13This war had a major impact on British
35:16influence in Mysore. The conflict was
35:18between Tipu Sultan and the British.
35:21Mir Qasim was in the Battle of Buxar,
35:23and Siraj-ud-Daulah was in the Battle of
35:25Plassey. Peshwa Baji Rao was in the
35:28Maratha War, so this was the
35:30Anglo-Mysore War with Tipu Sultan. Which
35:33treaty ended the First Anglo-Maratha War
35:36in 1782?
35:39The first Anglo-Maratha war that took
35:41place in 1782, by which treaty did it
35:44end, students?
35:45That treaty is called the Treaty of
35:47Salbai.
35:48The Treaty of Allahabad was in 1765,
35:51which was after the Battle of Buxar, not
35:54the Anglo-Mysore War.
35:56The Treaty of Salbai was in 1782, the
35:58Treaty of Bassein was in 1802, and the
36:00Treaty of Seringapatam was in 1792.
36:03To clarify, students, the Treaty of
36:05Seringapatam was the one in 1792 for the
36:08Third war.
36:09That was the Anglo-Mysore War, after
36:11which the Treaty of Seringapatam was
36:13signed. Everything is clear.
36:17' The Treaty of Bassein was signed in
36:18which year? 'In which year was the
36:20Treaty of Bassein signed? Students, in
36:231802.
36:24Let's move to question number 43,' Which
36:26Governor-General is associated with the
36:29Doctrine of Lapse?
36:30'What is the Doctrine of Lapse, students
36:32? Dalhousie. D for Dalhousie, D for
36:34Doctrine of Lapse.
36:37The Doctrine of Lapse meant that if a
36:40king had no natural heir, his adopted
36:43son could not inherit the throne, and
36:47the kingdom would be annexed.
36:51This was Lord Dalhousie's system. Next,
36:54question number 44,' Which of the
36:56following states was annexed by the
36:58British under the Doctrine of... ''...
37:00Lapse?
37:01'According to the Doctrine of Lapse,
37:03which state was taken over by the
37:05British?
37:06Not Hyderabad, not Kashmir, not Mysore;
37:09it was Jhansi, Jhansi.
37:14Question number 45,' Awadh was annexed
37:17by the British in 1856 primarily on
37:20which stated ground?
37:22'It is asking, for what reason did the
37:25British annex Awadh or Ayodhya in 1856?
37:29It wasn't the Doctrine of Lapse, not the
37:32defeat in the Battle of Plassey, nor the
37:34refusal to accept the Subsidiary
37:36Alliance, but it was misgovernment, as
37:39claimed by the British.
37:43In Awadh, Wajid Ali Shah was accused of
37:47misgovernance, and in 1856, the British
37:51attacked and took it over.
37:57Remember, which was the first princely
38:00state?
38:02Which was the first princely state the
38:04British attacked, who was the first?
38:06Which country? Which state?
38:10Question number 46: Which event marked
38:13the end of the East India Company rule
38:15in India and the beginning of the direct
38:18Crown rule?
38:20Crown rule means 1858; why look at '73,
38:24'84, or 1861?
38:261858 is correct. It asks which event
38:30ended the East India Company's rule and
38:33brought it directly under the British
38:35Crown.
38:36The East India Company ended and the
38:39British Crown started, when? 1858.
38:43After the 1857 revolt, the British
38:45government took the administration of
38:47India from the Company's hands.
38:49By the Act of 1858, direct British rule
38:55began in India.
38:57Next, question number 47: I hope
39:00everyone is doing well.
39:03I want everyone to share this video
39:06widely.
39:07It motivates me and makes me very happy
39:10.
39:12Don't just watch it yourself; don't be
39:14selfish, as you will also become
39:16teachers in the future, so if you don't
39:18share, those who follow you won't either
39:21.
39:22A teacher and a student have a great
39:25bond, even if we haven't met
39:28face-to-face, so let's maintain that
39:32relationship.
39:35I expect you to play an active role
39:39because you are the center of education
39:42.
39:44Which Governor-General introduced the
39:46policy of annexation known as the
39:47Doctrine of Lapse during the expansion
39:50of British power? What is the Doctrine
39:52of Lapse? D for Doctrine, D for Lord
39:54Dalhousie. Next, which battle in 1757 is
39:58commonly regarded as the turning point
40:01in the establishment of British
40:03political power in Bengal?
40:06In 1757, which war was the major turning
40:09point for the establishment of British
40:11political power in Bengal?
40:14It was the Battle of Plassey.
40:16The Battle of Plassey was in 1757, the
40:19Battle of Buxar was in 1764, the Battle
40:22of Wandiwash in 1760, and the Battle of
40:25Panipat was in 1761.
40:271526, 1556, 1761.
40:33Question number 49: Which of the
40:35following correctly explains why the
40:37Battle of Buxar was significant for
40:39British expansion?
40:41Why was the Battle of Buxar significant
40:44for British expansion, how did it lead
40:47to expansion?
40:49The reason is, it ended European trade
40:52in India.
40:53It strengthen the company's position
40:56against the Nawab of Bengal, Nawab of
40:59Awadh, and the Mughal Emperor.
41:03It is said that it strengthened the
41:05company's position against the Nawab of
41:08Bengal, the Nawab of Awadh, and the
41:10Mughal Emperor. Which one, students? The
41:13Battle of Buxar? The other options are
41:14wrong. There was no immediate transfer
41:16of Bengal's independence, understand?
41:19This means the Battle of Buxar took
41:22place on October 22, 1764, against the
41:24company. Between whom?
41:27Mir Qasim, then Shuja-ud-Daula, and
41:30finally Shah Alam II were against the
41:33British/Robert Clive.
41:37When they lost the Battle of Buxar,
41:40their power gradually increased,
41:42understand?
41:44That is why the British expansion grew
41:46significantly after the Battle of Buxar
41:49.
41:49Last question, number 50: Arrange the
41:52following events in chronological order
41:54.
41:55Chronologically, the Battle of Plassey
41:58was in 1757, the Battle of Buxar was in
42:011764, Diwani rights were in 1765, and
42:04the Regulating Act was in 1773. Look at
42:07this, everyone; this is your homework,
