Palashi Monument, War memorial in Palashi, India
The Palashi Monument stands on the eastern bank of the Bhagirathi River, marking the location where British forces established control over Bengal in 1757.
The monument commemorates the Battle of Plassey of June 23, 1757, where British East India Company forces under Robert Clive defeated Nawab Siraj ud-Daulah.
The site contains multiple commemorative elements, including a prominent gold-colored statue of Nawab Siraj ud-Daulah and inscriptions detailing the battle's significance.
Visitors can reach the monument by taking a train to Plassey railway station, located 7 kilometers away, or by bus services from Kolkata, 150 kilometers south.
The original battlefield area near the monument has changed over time as the Bhagirathi River's course shifted, altering the historical landscape.
