Really? You should know that the blank line corresponds to the length of the word, and the city is C__'s Bazar, so it definitely can't be 'Chittagong'!

lol tried Vadodara, Varanasi, Vishakhapatnam as I only focused on the 'cities in India beginning with V' part of the clue rather than thinking of the ubitquous Portuguese explorer...
