COCANADA, or COCONADA

This article appears in Volume V06, Page 615 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CLI-COM
COCANADA, or COCONADA , a town of British India, in the Godavari
district
  of
Madras
 , on the
coast
  in the extreme north of the Godavari
delta
 , about 315 M. N. of
Madras
 . Pop. (1901) 48,096, showing an increase of 18 % in the decade. As the administrative headquarters of the
district
 , and the
chief
  port on the Coromandel
coast
  after Madras, Cocanada was formerly of considerable importance, but its shipping trade has declined, owing to the silting of the anchorage, and to the construction of the railway. It is connected by navigable channels with the canal system of the Godavari
delta
 , and by a branch line with Samalkot on the
East
  Coast railway. The anchorage is an open roadstead, with two lighthouses. The
chief
  exports are
rice
 ,
cotton
 , sugar and oilseeds. Mills have been established for cleaning
rice
 . The town contains a second-grade college, a high school, and a literary association.
