Where is the largest hemp textile industry center in India?

Kolkata is India's largest hemp textile industry center, close to jute producing areas.

India's industries are mainly distributed in the northeast of Deccan Plateau, where mineral resources are abundant, transportation is convenient and water resources are abundant. The Ganges Delta is rich in jute, and on this basis, the hemp textile industry has been developed, with Kolkata as the center. The center of India's cotton textile industry is Mumbai, and Bangalore, India, is famous for producing computer software and is called "Silicon Valley of South Asia".

Kolkata (Bengali:, English: Kolkata/ old name: Kolkata) is the capital of West Bengal, India. It is located in the Ganges Delta in eastern India, on the east bank of the Giant River (a tributary of the Ganges). It is the third largest city in India (next to Mumbai and New Delhi), the largest bast spinning center in India, and the jute output of the world's largest cities is among the best.

During the colonial period, Kolkata was the capital of British India from 1772 to191. During this period, the city has been the educational, scientific, cultural and political center of modern India, and a large number of Victorian buildings left at that time are still well preserved. However, after India's independence in 1947, the city experienced long-term economic stagnation due to various unfavorable factors. However, since 2000, economic recovery has replaced the morbid decline, and cities have begun to regenerate the vitality of growth.
