Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is (d). The Mughal Emperor Shah Alam granted the Dewani of Bengal to the East India Company in 1765.
The Dewani was the right to collect revenue in Bengal, Bihar, and Orissa. This gave the East India Company a great deal of power in the region, and it was a major step in the company’s eventual takeover of India.
The option (a), (b), and (c) are incorrect because the Mughal Emperor Shah Alam granted the Dewani of Bengal to the East India Company in 1765.
