Bharat Ek Khoj 39: Company Bahadur
Bharat Ek Khoj-The Discovery of India
A Production of Doordarshan, the Government of India’s Public Service Broadcaster
Episode 39: Company Bahadur
With Amrish Puri as Raza Khan, Jalal Agha as Robert Cave , Tom Alter as Sykes, Rajendra Gupta as Raja Nandkumar, Richard Lane-Smith as Middleton, and C.R. Woodward as Johnson. The dancers are Hemswarna Mirajkar and Yuvak Biradari.
Nehru observed that the hundred years that followed the death of Aurangzeb in 1707 saw a complicated and many-sided struggle for mastery over India. The Mughal Empire rapidly fell to pieces and their Subehdars (viceroys) and Mansabdars (governors) began to function as semi-independent rulers. The real protagonists for power in India during the 18th century were four: two Indians factions - the Marathas, Haider Ali and Tipu Sultan in the south; two foreign factions - the British and the French.
Nehru further observes that in Bengal, Lord Clive, with treason and forgery, won the battle of Plassey in 1757, a date that marks the unsavoury beginning of the British empire in India. This was followed by another and more decisive win at the battle of Buxar between the British and the deposed Mir Qasim in alliance with the emperor Shah Alam and the Nawab of Awadh in 1764, and all that remained of the Mughal power in northern India was shattered.
The drama unfolds with the rapid succession of Nawabs of Bengal to the now titular Raja Nanda Kumar. The successors are increasingly emasculated from their revenue-earning capacity by the Company and Clive now insists on a more skewed treaty for earnings from comprehensive taxation on all items other than salt. Not satisfied, Clive invites Raza Khan, an old hand from Nawab Alibardi Khan’s time, to join the top echelon. Nanda Kumar is confined to the capital Murshidabad while Clive has freedom of the commercial capital Kolkata, after the Company has extracted the highly-lucrative Diwani (revenue- administration) of Bengal-Bihar-Orissa.
A scheming Clive is seen enjoying Kathak dance in typical period costume, while pressure is mounted for appointing British civilians for the junior revenue jobs at Nawab’s cost. A desperate Raza, wishing to plan for efficient revenue-machinery prevalent in Alibardi’s time is pushed to the wall. Incidents of British graft in Purnea and Dinajpur mount, and the exchequer is on the brink of bankruptcy. Protestations by Raza fall on deaf ears. As Nehru records, an early consequence of the British rule in Bengal and Bihar was a terrible famine, which ravaged the two provinces in 1770, killing over a third of the population of this rich, vast and densely-populated area.
Warren Hastings appears on the scene and the signed document by Raza is now put to forged use by virtually blackmailing him, besides physically assaulting him surreptitiously. Hasting’s case against Raza is the last straw and the exalted man dies of a broken heart in 1791. Looking back over this period, Nehru says, it almost seems that the British succeeded in dominating India by a succession of fortuitous circumstances and lucky flukes. With remarkably little effort, they won a great empire and enormous wealth, which helped to make them the leading power

10:00 "ধনধান্য পুস্প ভরা আমাদের এই বসুন্ধরা"- this phrase was once truth. First came the Tribal and dynastic dispute of Aryan, Buddhist, Hindu dynasties, then came Afghans, then Delhi Sultanates, then the Mughals, then Portuguese, French, Marathas and British, all of them only looted this great land for centuries. After the establishment of Pakistan, Pakistanis came as East-Pakistan to exploit, loot and destroy culture of Bangla. And now after independence, Bangladesh is trapped in internal political turmoil, corruption, geopolitical and corporate proxy wars of Korea, China, India, Russia and US. When will Bangladeshi civilians get their freedom true freedom. 😢😢😢

It was the time of Robert Clive when the company started to dominate the country as he knew that the rulers will become there slaves very easily if the Britishers gave them gifts & make them happy. During 18th century India had 25% of the world's economy and when they left in 1947, India was struggling for economy & high poverty. Britishers mainly came to India just to loot the wealth in the name of trade & business.

don’t look at performance of actors, think about characters they are playing. Obviously british were there to make their profit and establish their rule but at the same time Mughals and musalman s were worried about protecting their nizam (rule and administration) who was worried about people? Non - believers were the last in line. Neglect and mistreatment of own people was for so long that every rulers and landlords were consumed in British Raj. For common people it was not making any difference. Past 1947, when will our motherland get truly representative government, administrations and leaders at all level in every matter that care of all of our people? This is the last chance citizens are missing to have a self rule. Elect only those, who think and care about others with integrity and meritocracy.

Idiot, Nehru wrote the book in English. How is he then Anti-HIndu. The time this serial was made, Urdu words were fairly common among masses, as English is today with us. How can a language be anti religion you moron. Urdu and Hindi both orginated from common origin with different scripts. Hence words in them are so common. Even today most of words and garmnmar rules of both languages are same. You may dislike Nehru, but do it on real facts, not on made up issue. The book was in English was adopted in serial in a language which uneducated people like you can understand.
