(Highschool World history)

C) The British East India Company forced the weak emperor to accept this right

Explanation:

The strength and military power of the British government after they have pushed out the French forces resulted in the weakness of the emperor who has no other choice than to surrender the collection of taxes by the British East India Company to collect all taxes in North India.

However, it must be stated that the treaty of the Allahabad in 1765 which was signed by Mughal Emperor and Robert Cliff of the British East India Company gives the right and powers both economical and political to the British to collect all the taxes.
