History

C.B. Ganj came into existence when a "Utilization Circle" was established in 1918 at Maheshpur Utaria near Bareilly, United Provinces. It was established by the Chief Conservator of forests, Sir Peter Clutterbuck, and the area was later named Clutterbuckgunj after him. [1] [2] A number of industries such as the Indian Turpentine & Rosin (founded in 1926 [3] ) and the Western Indian Match Company (WIMCO; founded in 1937) were established here in later years, [4] which resulted in C.B. Ganj becoming a major industrial centre of the city. After the independence of India in 1947, an industrial estate was established in CB Ganj by the UP State Industrial Development Corporation (UPSIDC) in 1958. [5] However, the Indian Turpentine & Rosin Factory ceased production in April 1998 and the WIMCO factory, which used to supply matches across the country, was shut down in 2014. [5]
