EXPLANATION:-
Technology made a most changes in the power looms with increase of machines people would lose their jobs . When the mills started making cloth , the demand for the handloom weavers cloth dropped that means there is decrease in a demand because all the people cannot buy in the small industries like power looms .All will be looking for buying in big industries .So, there will be decrease in demand when the industries were started
So, with increase of mills these all There the demand of power looms dropped This results many people who are working can face many problems in their livelihood . They can lose their salaries . The power loom units to provide healthcare , pension etc .If there is any power cut power looms workers are not given salaries .So, these type of problems has to be faced who are working there

With modernisation, everything has become machine dependent. Machines in factories churn out fabric, giving stiff competition to weavers and loom workers.
These artisans spend a lot of time and put in a lot of labour to make a single piece of fabric. As a result, their products are expensive.
Moreover, middlemen add their own commissions to it and eventually the artisans get paid very little.
Further, the modern consumer focusses on the cost factor and trendy wear.
So, though the artisans are keeping traditional artforms alive, they themselves are losing their livelihood and struggling to make ends meet, because of lower demand of handlooms, higher costs and lack of effective marketing.
