Q. Which city is referred to as the Silicon Valley of India?
Answer: Bangalore
Notes: The Silicon Valley of India is a nickname of the Indian city of Bangalore. As Bangalore is on the Mysore Plateau, the area is also sometimes referred to as “Silicon Plateau”. The name signifies Bangalore’s status as a hub for information technology (IT) companies in India and is a comparative reference to the original Silicon Valley, based around Santa Clara Valley, California, a major hub for IT companies in the United States. One of the earliest mentions of this sobriquet occurred in late 1980s in the Indian Express.
