The history of Bombay's textile areas is one of the most important, if also least known, stories
of modern India. Covering a dense network of textile mills, public housing estates, markets and cultural
centers,
this area covers about a thousand acres in the heart of India's commercial and financial capital. Bombay has always
been on the top in fashion sarees. The seven islands that now form Bombay were first home to the Koli
fisher folk whose shanties still occupy parts of the city shoreline today. The islands were ruled by a succession of
Hindu dynasties, invaded by Muslims in the 14th century and then ceded to Portugal by the Sultan of Gujarat in 1534.
The Portuguese did little to develop them before the major island of the group was included in Catherine of Braganza's
dowry when she married England's Charles II in 1661. The British Government took possession of all seven islands in
1 665 but leased them three years later to the East India Company for a
meager annual rent of 10.00.
Bombay soon developed as a trading port for elegant sarees and textiles thanks to
its fine harbor and the number of merchants who were attracted from other parts of India by the British promise of
religious freedom and land grants. Migrants included sizeable communities of Parsis and Gujaratis, and south Indian
Hindus fleeing Portuguese persecution in Goa. Their arrival, and that of later immigrant groups, laid the basis for
Bombay's celebrated multicultural society. Within 20 years, the presidency of the East India Company was transferred
to Bombay from Surat, and the town soon became the trading headquarters for the whole west coast of India.
Bombay played a formative role in the struggle for Independence, hosting the first Indian National Congress in
1885 and the launch of the 'Quit India' campaign in 1942. Bombay (AKA Mumbai) is the glamour of Bollywood cinema,
cricket on the maidans on weekends, bhelpuri on the beach at Chowpatty and red double-decker buses. It is also the
infamous cages of the red-light district, Asia's largest slums, communalist politics and powerful mafia dons.
This pungent drama is played out against a Victorian townscape more reminiscent of a prosperous 19th-century
English industrial city than anything you'd expect to find on the edge of the Arabian Sea. Bombay has vital
street life,
India's best nightlife, and more bazaars, saris bazaar than you could ever explore.
An island connected by bridges to the mainland, Bombay is the industrial hub of everything from textiles to
petrochemicals, and responsible for half of India's foreign trade. The appealing and exemplary sarees from Bombay
are export to all over the world. But while it aspires to be another Singapore, it's also a magnet for the rural poor.
It's these new migrants who are continually re-shaping the city, making sure Bombay keeps one foot in its hinterland
while the other kicks ass in the global marketplace.
