Some aspects of industries in modern mithila (With particular reference to Salt petre, Indigo, Jute and Sugarcane)

Abstract

Mithila, the name itself reflects that this was the land of learning and meditation. It has been once a centre of education and was supposed to be almost the last word, so, far the religion, philosophy, logic, culture and economics was concerned2, Mithila had a charm of its own. The entire region of Nonh Bihar was known world over for its monopolising magnitude in this particular industry. The production of Indigo and the area under cultivation was nearly 100,00 areas at this Darbhanga contained the largest concern in India. We are concerned with has little potential for large and core sector industries. But that never means that a region not having basic minerals and alloys can never flourish industrially.
