Historic battlefield. The Battle of Plassey in 1757 changed the course of the history of Bengal and subsequently, India itself. It was a major turning point for the EIC in the subcontinent. Considering the importance of the event, the monument is poorly maintained. Overgrown shrubs all around. Lack of maintainence and awareness and led to a downfall of tourists in this part of the town. Would love to see the govt take proactive measures to make this a part of the legacy of Bengal.

In between Nadia and Behrempur lies silently the monument where the Batlle of Plassey fought in 1757. Troops of East India Company led by Robert Clive fought with the 50000 soldiers of Nawab of Bengal Siraj-Ud-Dalah. The Nawab was betrayed by his commander Mir Jafar and his ministers, The Nawab lost the battle and Bengal itself lost to western colonisers. Bengal was annexed by British East India Company. #plassey #battleofplassey #plasseymonument

One of the most important places in modern Indian history. The battle of Plassey in 1757 ultimately shaped the destiny of this great nation. The monument is, on the contrary, standing alone without much attention. The fields around bear witness to the great battle between the English East India Company and the armies of independent Bengal's last nawab.

The place from where Bengal lost freedom in 1757. The war between Robert clive and Nawab Siraj Ud-daulah began here and unfortunatly due to betreyal Bengal lost its freedom. So this is a very important place, chapter for Indian History, but this place still being treated as adopted child from every Govt. Govt should make the place better for history preservation.

This is Plassey Monument which is a historical place and the history of Battle of Plassey is scattered around this place. It is a very beautiful place and the environment here is very beautiful and charming.

I visited the Plassey War Monument only a few days ago. This place is situated near National Highway 34. The distance of the Plassey Battlefield Monument from National Highway 34 is approximately 3 KM. There is a statue of the Nawab Mirza Muhammad Siraj Ud-Daulah , then Nawab of Bengal and a Monument as a remembrance of Plassey Battle that happened against the British army in 1757. Although that battle was lost because of some backstabbing by Mirzafar but still it reminds us of how bravely Siraj Ud-Daulah fought that battle to save our nation and stop the british.
