Answer:

He first came to prominence for his heroic defense of the Carnatic's capital of Arcot in October 1751 against the French. This helped establish British power in southern India. As a lieutenant-colonel, Clive then commanded the expedition sent to recover Calcutta from Nawab Siraj-Ud-Daulah in December 1756.
