But material difficulties might well be expected, and it was against these that the Nawab next proceeded to provide. It will be right to remember that a treaty, offensive and defensive, existed between the Nawab and the members of the Bengal council, who in fact owed a good deal of the prosperity of their govern- ment to that agreement. The Nawab now called upon the governor-general to fulfil their obligations under the treaty of 1765, which bound them to supply troops, to be paid by the Nawab ...whenever he should require them. By this time a great political change had taken place in Bengal. As the civil officers became more experienced and competent, the evils of Clive's dual government became more apparent. It had never been anything but a temporary make- shift ; the Court of Directors, indeed, had fully approved its adoption in 1765, but times had since changed.
