Mumbai, a west-central city of India, is India's main port and commercial center. At first, Bombay was a cluster of seven Koli islands occupied by a local community of simple fishermen. Not very long after that, Bombay soon became an important aspect in India's trading industries.
As soon as its developments progressed and reclamation started, it was then that Governor Gerald Aungier encouraged business men from all over to come and settle.
Historians have since then dubbed him the title suitable title of "Father of Bombay" because it was in this period Bombay first had its taste of economic success and developmental advancements. |
