Question

Describe the components of indrustrial region

Answer 1

Answer:

1) An industrial complex would be an area intensively developed for industry, with no residential

content. It might feature interconnected or related industries, such as car assembly surrounded by

engine and panel manufacture , and other component suppliers such as wiring loom makers. All

these in a complex may have one owner or different owners.

2) Industrial regions emerge when a number of industries locate close to each other and share the

benefits of their closeness. They tend to concentrate on certain locations because of the

favourable locational factors. Several indices are used to identify the clustering of industries,

important among them are:

• The number of industrial units

• Number of industrial workers.

• Quantum of power used for industrial purposes.

• Total industrial output.

• Value added by manufacturing, etc.

3) India has several industrial regions like Mumbai- Pune cluster, Bangalore-Tamil Nadu region,

Hugli region, Ahmedabad-Baroda region, Chottanagpur industrial belt, Vishakhapatnam-Guntur

belt, Gurgaon-Delhi-Meerut region and the Kollam Thiruvanathapuram industrial cluster.
