Lying between 21° 25’ 24’ and 27° 1’ 1’ N and 85° 48’ 20’ and 89° 53’ 04’ E, the state of West Bengal in eastern India shares its borders with three nations – Bangladesh, Bhutan and Nepal. The climate is tropical and humid except in the northern hilly region close to the Himalayas. West Bengal is an intensely populated state of 91.35 million (2011 census) with 1 029 people per sq km (compared to the Indian average of 325).
