When he died in 1765, the ruinous system of puppet Nawabs came practically to an end; for in that year Lord Clive, who had returned to India, assumed, under a grant from the Delhi emperor, direct adminis- tration of the revenue of the three provinces of Bengal, Bihar, and Orissa, an office that was entitled the Di- wani. The Diwan had been originally the controller- general on behalf of the imperial treasury in each prov- ince, with supreme authority over all public expendi- ture; so that the i...nvestiture of the Company with this office added the power of the purse to the power of the sword, and rendered them directly and regularly re- sponsible for the most important departments of gov- ernment.
