Abstract
The death of Emperor Aurangzeb in 1707 A.D. was a turning point in the history of Indo-Pakistan, especially in its eastern part. It was followed by two political changes in Bengal, one comparatively minor, the establishment of an independent Nizamat in 1717 A.D. and the other of a revolutionary character, the foundation of the British Empire in the country as a result of the Battle of Plassey, 1757 A.D. Although those two political changes affected the fortunes of the Bengali people in some respect differently. They however introduced farreaching social and economic changes in the country.
