The first jute mill set up in India at Rishra (West Bengal).
Explanation:
- In India, the first jute mill was placed at Rishra, on the River Hooghly in 1855 when Mr. George Acland carried jute spinning machinery from Dundee.
- Four years later, initially, a power-driven weaving factory was set up.
- In 1869, five mills were working with 950 looms.
- Growth was rapid and, by 1910, 38 companies promoting 30,685 looms shipped more than a billion yards of fabrics and over 450 million bags.
- Until the average 1880s, the jute production was restricted entirely to Dundee and Calcutta.
- France, America, and later Germany, Belgium, Italy, Austria, and Russia, among others, related to jute manufacturing in the following part of the 19th century.
