🏮 CAPTURE OF HOOGHLY



📍 Based on imperial farman circa 1759, the Portuguese were settled near satgaon in Bengal to carry trading activities.

📍 They monopolised the manufacture of salt, built a custom house of their own and started enforcing strictly the levy of duty on to***co, which had become an important article of trade since its introduction at the beginning of the 17th century.

📍 The Portuguese not only made money as traders but also started a cruel slave trade by purchasing or seizing Hindu and Muslim children, whom they brought up as Christians. In the course of their nefarious activities, they seized two slave girls of Mumtaz Mahal.

📍 Shah Jahan ordered the Bengal governor Qasim Khan to take action against the Portuguese. A siege of Hooghly finally led to the Portuguese fleeing.

📍 The Mughals suffered a loss of 1,000 men, but also took 400 prisoners to Agra. The prisoners were offered the option to convert to Islam or become slaves.
