Answer 2

The problems faced by the cotton weavers:

(i) They could not get sufficient supply of raw

cotton of good quality.

(ii) When the American Civil War broke out and

cotton supplies from the US were cut off, Britain

turned to India. As raw cotton exports from India

increased, the price of raw cotton shot up.

(iii)Weavers in India were starved of supplies and

forced to buy raw cotton at exorbitant prices. In

this, situation weaving could not pay.
