Question

Describe the decline of indian textiles.

Answer 1

Describe the decline of indian textiles.

Answer:

This is how indian textiles declined :-

• Indian textiles now had to compete with British textiles in the European and American markets.
• Exporting textiles to England also became increasingly difficult since very high duties were imposed on Indian textiles imported into Britain.
• Thousands of weavers in India were now thrown out of employment.
• Bengal weavers were the worst hit. English and European companies stopped buying Indian goods and their agents no longer gave out advances to weavers to secure supplies.

Indian textiles now had to compete with British textiles in the European and American markets. Second: exporting textiles to England also became increasingly difficult since very high duties were imposed on Indian textiles imported into Britain. Thousands of weavers in India were now thrown out of employment.
