Correct Answer: Hyderabad


Solution : The correct answer is Hyderabad.

Hyderabad in Andhra Pradesh is also known as Pearl City of India because of its freshwater pearl production. It is also considered as the major trading centre of pearl in India.

Naturally pearls are produced by the oyesters and mussels as an act of defence against the parasites entering their body. They secrete aragonite and chonchiolin which makes up pearls and their outer shell.
