Who among the following became the Nawab of Bengal after Alivardi Khan?
Sirajuddaulah
The question deals with the succession of the Nawabs of Bengal in the mid-18th century.
Alivardi Khan was succeeded by his grandson Sirajuddaulah, who became the Nawab of Bengal in 1756.
Sirajuddaulah is well known for his conflict with the British East India Company, which led to the Battle of Plassey in 1757.
Mir Jafar became Nawab only after Sirajuddaulah's defeat at Plassey, so he came later, not immediately after Alivardi Khan.
Mir Qasim succeeded Mir Jafar, placing him still further down the line of succession.
Murshid Quli Khan was an earlier Nawab of Bengal who came before Alivardi Khan, not after him.
Therefore, the Nawab of Bengal after Alivardi Khan was Sirajuddaulah.
