The artwork, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases this remarkable monument that stands proudly in the market square. The statue pays tribute to two influential figures - Robert Lord Clive and Baron Plassey - who played significant roles as military leaders and politicians during their time. Born in 1725, Robert Clive is famously known as "Clive of India" for his exploits in British India. This monumental sculpture immortalizes his legacy alongside Baron Plassey.
