Calcutta - in bengali pronounced kolkata.

Job Charnock of the East India Company established a factory in Calcutta on 24th August, 1690. Little did he know that Calcutta would one day become a bustling metropolis

Calcutta is the state capital of
West Bengal - Situated in the eastern
part of the country and probably the
only state which boasts of the
picturesque Himalayas
in the north as well as the lovely
golden beaches of the Bay of Bengal
in the south and eastern part of the state.
Also to mention one of the rarest Mangrove
forests - in the sunderbans area.
