Which city is known as the Cotton Polis of India?

  • A.Ahmedabad
  • B.Mumbai
  • C.Kochi
  • D.Kolkata

Answer: B

Mumbai is called the Cottonopolis of India.

India's first cotton mill was set up there in 1854, and the city had a hinterland of black cotton soil, a humid climate that suited spinning, a port for machinery and export, and capital from the China trade. The name echoes Manchester's.
