Which of the above statements is / are correct?
Answer:
Only 2
Notes: Robert Clive was taken prisoner by the French during the First Carnatic War, not the Second. The right of Nawab Anwar-ud-din as Nawab of Carnatic was indeed disputed by Chanda Sahib, who was supported by the French. Hence, only statement 2 is correct.
