Answer 1

Answer:

Any country's iron and steel industries are regarded to be its backbone. The first iron and steel firm in India was founded in Kulti (West Bengal) in 1874 AD. It was known as the Brakar Iron Company. Jamshedji Ta­ta Sakchi (Jharkhand) built the first modern iron and steel mill in 1907. Cotton factories were among the earliest to be established in India. Cawassji Dawar established the first modern cotton factories in Mumbai in 1854 AD.

Explanation:

Traditionally, India was known for its high-quality "Muslin cloth" from Dacca, Surat's golden zari embroidery, and Calicut's calicos. However, Indian industry suffered during British administration. The indigenous industry in Britain suffered a fall as a result of the industrial revolution. During the British occupation of India, the first industrial industry was established. The first railway line between Bombay and Thane was built in 1854. In 1855, the first jute mill was established in Calcutta, now Kolkata. In 1872, the first iron ore smelting facility was built in Kulti, West Bengal. The massive need for industrial items during WWI bolstered India's iron and steel, chemical, and machine tool industries. During modern India's Five Year Plans, their growth and development were meticulously planned.
