Explanation: Under the pretext of corruption in Bengal administration Clive was appointed Governor of Fort William.

Clive did not like his predecessor Vansittart’s decision restoring Oudh to Shah Alam. So, he called for fresh negotiation with Shuja-ud-daulah.
As a result of this, two treaties of Allahabad were signed. The emperor granted the Diwani (revenue administration) of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa to the Company.
The emperor Shah Alam II was to get the districts of Allahabad and Kora, besides an annual allowance of 26 lakhs of rupees from the revenues of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa.
