The pharmaceutical industry is a significant sector in Gujarat. Where are major pharma clusters located?

Ahmedabad & Vadodara
Surat & Rajkot
Kutch & Gandhinagar
Bhavnagar & Jamnagar

The correct answer is: a) Ahmedabad & Vadodara.

Ahmedabad and Vadodara are the two major pharma clusters in Gujarat. Ahmedabad is home to over 1,000 pharmaceutical companies, including some of the largest in India, such as Cipla, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, and Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories. Vadodara is also home to a number of major pharmaceutical companies, such as Cadila Healthcare and Zydus Cadila.

Surat and Rajkot are also important cities in Gujarat, but they are not major pharma clusters. Kutch and Gandhinagar are relatively small cities, and they do not have a significant pharmaceutical industry. Bhavnagar and Jamnagar are both located on the coast, and they are important centers for the oil and gas industry.

The pharmaceutical industry is a significant sector in Gujarat, and it employs over 100,000 people in the state. The industry is growing rapidly, and it is expected to create more jobs in the future.
