Correct Answer: Mir Jafar


Solution : The correct option is Mir Jafar

The Battle of Plassey, which took place on June 23, 1757, was a significant event in Indian history during the period of British East India Company rule. The defeat of Nawab Siraj ud-Daulah was influenced by the actions of Mir Jafar, one of his commanders. Mir Jafar betrayed Siraj ud-Daulah and did not actively participate in the battle, contributing to the British victory.
