Abstract

Howrah is the birth place of foundry industry in India. This industry in Howrah flourished upto the first half of this century and then the slump began which still contin-ues. There are about 500 foundries in Howrah, most of which are in a state of poor health. Such a situation has led to the economic depression of Howrah region and surely contributed adversely to the economic well being of West Bengal as well as that of India.
