Which district of Bihar is known as 'silk city'?
Detailed Explanation:
Bhagalpur is historically recognized as the 'Silk City' of Bihar due to its dominant role in silk production and handloom weaving, particularly the famous Tussar silk.
Bihar has over 90,000 weavers, with Bhagalpur being the most prominent silk centre. Other districts like Gaya, Nalanda, and Darbhanga have weaving clusters but do not hold the 'Silk City' title.
Therefore, Bhagalpur is the correct answer, making Option 2 correct.
