Agro-climatic Groups

Depending on soil and climate variations, West Bengal can be divided into six broad divisions:

  • The hill region in the north
  • The terai and Teesta alluvial region of North Bengal
  • The laterectic, red and gravely undulating region in the west
  • The coastal alluvial region in the south
  • The gangetic alluvial region in the west
  • The Vindhya alluvial region in the centre

Famous quotes containing the word groups:

    ... until both employers’ and workers’ groups assume responsibility for chastising their own recalcitrant children, they can vainly bay the moon about “ignorant” and “unfair” public criticism. Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
