The city of Kanpur is among the many Cities in Uttar Pradesh, which are washed by the holy waters of the River Ganges. Situated on the banks of the Ganga, Kanpur is situated at an altitude of about 125 meters above sea level and spreads over an area of more of than a thousand square kilometers.
The location of Kanpur alongside the Ganges near its upper course has also rendered optimum fertility to the soil, hence making it suitable for agricultural activities. This in turn, has paved the way for the establishment and development of various industries in Kanpur that is further complemented by the huge manpower resources in the region, owing to its high population density.
