It is located in eastern India on the east bank of the River Hooghly. When referred to as "Kolkata", it usually includes the suburbs, and thus its population exceeds 15 Million, making it India's second-largest City and urban agglomeration Kolkata served as the capital of India during the British Raj until 1911. Once the centre of modern education, industry, science, culture and politics in India, Kolkata witnessed intense political violence, clashes and economic stagnation from the years starting 1954 and continuing till this day. However, since the year 2000, economic rejuvenation has led to a spurt in the city's growth. Like the other metropolitan cities of India, Kolkata continues to struggle with urbanisation problems like poverty, pollution and traffic congestion. Kolkata is noted for its revolutionary history, ranging from the Indian struggle for independence to the leftist and trade union movements. read full wikipedia reference about Calcutta, India OTHER POPULAR DESTINATIONS IN INDIA All available cities in India Agra Ahmedabad Amritsar Aurangabad Bangalore Bhopal Bhubaneswar Bikaner Calcutta Chennai Cochin Darjeeling Goa Hassan Hyderabad Jaipur Jaisalmer Jammu Jodhpur Kovalam Madurai Mamallapuram Manali Mumbai Mussoorie Mysore Nainital New Delhi Pune Shimla Thiruvananthapuram Udaipur Varanasi Visakhapatnum
