Question

why did the British introduce tea plantation in Darjeeling himalayas​

Answer 1

Answer:

The story of Darjeeling tea started some 150 years ago when Dr. Campbell (civil surgeon), as an experiment planted tea seeds in his garden at Beechwood, Darjeeling, 7000ft above sea level. He was reasonably successful in raising the plant, so the government, in 1847, elected to put out tea nurseries in this area.
