  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 5 years, 3 months ago

Reasons for concentration of jute mills along the Hoogly river:

  • West Bengal is the storehouse of jute. It produces the highest quantity of jute.
  • The industry requires a lot of water which is easily available from the Hoogly river.
  • Cheap labour is easily available because of migrating labour from neighbouring states of Bihar and Odisha.
  • Inexpensive water transport in the river Hoogly is available.
  • A large urban sector in Kolkata provides banking, insurance and loan facilities.
  • Kolkata is a good harbour which can provide facilities for the export of jute products in various parts of the world.
