Siraj-ud-Daula signed the Treaty of Alinagar with the British on February 9, 1757.

The Treaty of Alinagar was a peace treaty that was signed between the British East India Company and the Nawab of Bengal, Siraj-ud-Daula, after the Battle of Plassey. The treaty was favorable to the British, and it gave them a number of concessions, including the right to trade freely in Bengal and to fortify their settlements.

The signing of the Treaty of Alinagar was a major turning point in the history of India. It marked the beginning of the British East India Company's expansion into India and the eventual establishment of British colonial rule.
