The name of which dye is derived from the name of a country in South Asia?

What woe it brought to the farmers of Champaran, Bihar, India. the Brits forced them to produce indigo dye and bought it off them for peanuts. all indentured labour. eventually, Mahatma Gandhi helped end this cruelty.

Indigo shrub grows very well and I’m planning to plant it at my farm near Goa

Indigo grows well in Indonesia. We call it nila. We have a saying 'karena nila setitik, rusak susu sebelanga', meaning a small drop of indigo spoils a pan full milk. Honestly, I just learn from this quiz that indigo is nila.

...so it is a plant! I was wondering since the explanation was not clear about it. thank you, gold biscuit & much success in your farming, chatur!
