Answer:

The problem faced by Indian cotton weavers continued. They were as follows:

i. Their export market collapsed due to increase in import duties on them in England .

ii. Their local market shrank as they were flooded with cheap Manchester imports .

iii. They could not get sufficient supply of raw cotton of goods quality. When the American civil war broke out and cotton supplies from the U.S. were cut off, Britain turned to India. Indian weavers were forced to buy cotton at a very high price.
