In this video, we reveal The Dark Secret of Warren Hastings: Why He Hanged an Innocent King. Many know about Mangal Pandey or Khudiram Bose, but who was the first person hanged in India under British rule? This episode uncovers the tragic story of Maharaja Nandakumar and the conspiracy known as India’s first "judicial murder."
We dive deep into the events of 1775, where Nandakumar dared to expose the corruption of Bengal’s first Governor-General, Warren Hastings. Instead of justice, he faced the wrath of Hastings and his ally, Chief Justice Sir Elijah Impey. Using the Regulating Act of 1773, they manipulated the court to execute Nandakumar for forgery—a crime that did not carry the death penalty in India. Watch to understand the full history of this "Black Case," the East India Company’s tyranny, and how a Brahmin was silenced for speaking the truth.
