Correct Option: D
Allahabad in Uttar Pradesh, is more an historical, religious and educational centre, than being an industrial city. The city’s original name – Prayag--comes from its position at the sacred union of the rivers Ganges, Yamuna and Saraswati. It is the second-oldest city in India. Kanpur (famous for leather industry; known as Manchester of the East), Mumbai (diverse industries) and Jamshedpur (steel) come under the list of India’s notable cities in terms of industrial output and employment generation.
