Question

The nucleus of the Hugh Industrial Region is:

Options

• Kolkata - Howrah

• Kolkata - Medinipur

• Kolkata - Rishra

• Kolkata - Konnagar

Answer 1

Kolkata - Howrah

Explanation:

The river Hugli provided the optimum location for the building of an inland river port as the core for the Hugli industrial region's development. Kolkata's ancient commerce centre from the late 17th century has evolved into the city's current industrial hub. As a result, Kolkata-Haora serves as the region's nucleus.
