Practice questions

Q1The iron and steel industry centre located near coalfields is:

A Bhadrawati

B Bokaro

C Jamshedpur

D Salem

Explanation

Bokaro is a major iron and steel centre in Jharkhand and is located close to the coalfields of the Damodar valley, a key reason for its industrial location. Bhadrawati in Karnataka is better known in relation to iron ore and local resources, not as the standard coalfield-near answer here. Jamshedpur is an old steel centre with access to minerals and transport, but the published key identifies the coalfield-near centre as Bokaro. Salem in Tamil Nadu is associated with special steel and nearby iron ore resources, not proximity to eastern coalfields.
