Answer» Answer: Black HOLE of Calcutta, scene of an incident on June 20, 1756, in which a NUMBER of Europeans were imprisoned in Calcutta (now KOLKATA) and many died. The Europeans were the remaining defenders of Calcutta following the capture of the city by the NAWAB (ruler) Sirāj al-Dawlah, of BENGAL, and the surrender of the East India Company’s garrison under the self-proclaimed governor of Bengal, John Z. Holwell. The incident became a cause célèbre in the idealization of British imperialism in India and a subject of controversy. |
