उत्तर

Raniganj is the oldest coalfield in India.

Explanation:

Raniganj, in West Bengal’s Asansol and Durgapur subdivisions, is India’s oldest coalfield, with commercial mining beginning in 1774 under British East India Company rule. It is an important source of high-quality, non-coking coal, which fuelled India's early railway network and industrial growth.
