Rewrite the statement by choosing the appropriate options.
Jamshedjee Tata started the manufacturing of steel at Tata Iron and Steel industry established in _____________
Options
Mumbai
Kolkata
Jamshedpur
Delhi
Solution
(a) Mumbai
The answer cannot be Mumbai; this is because Mumbai doesn’t have iron ore and basalt and even coal mines. Thus the manufacturing of iron and steel goods was not possible.
(b) Kolkata
Kolkata is a city which is located in the Tropical region; it has a marine climate and has seashores. There are no mines of iron, coal, coke, basalt and magnesium. There is the scope of cropping and agriculture in this city but not manufacturing of steel equipment.
(c) Jamshedpur
Jamshedpur is the correct answer as it is located in Bihar, which is located at a place where the soil and mines are rich in iron ore, basalt, coke, coal and magnesium. The geographical factors of this place are favourable for the manufacturing of Steel and iron equipment.
(d) Delhi
It is a metropolitan city and was always home to service and administration professions. It does not have mines and big rocks with hard and melted lava which are sources of minerals. There is no place for manufacturing, and thus the plant could never be settled up here. It was a princely state with only buildings and some forests, but the soil here is not rich enough to bear industries here.
