Question

Why is Ahmedabad called the Manchester of India

Answer 1

Dear Student,
Manchester was by far the most important centre for producing fabrics in Europe from the 16th century. The localization of the textile industry in Manchester had resulted in its excellent infrastructural facilities. Manchester was also the first industrial city of the world.

Ahmadabad also contains all of these virtues. It is one of the most important cotton textile-producing centres in the country, and worldwide. It has excellent infrastructural facilities and is one of the most important industrial cities of the country.
Owing to these reasons, Ahmadabad is called India's Manchester.
