Question

how did the industrial revolution in england affect india's industrialisation

Answer 1

Indian textiles were in great in demand in England. This was a matter of concern for British cloth manufacturers. They began to put pressure on their government to ban the import of Indian textiles. The Industrial revolution revolutionized the textile industry in Britain. Cloth began to be made on machines. This made it cheaper than cloth made by hand. Indian textiles also lost out to British textiles on the issue of price in the European and American markets.

Answer 2

Answer:

After the Industrial Revolution, Britain started producing machine-made goods and textiles that were much cheaper than the Indian goods. They were also often better in quality. Indian handicrafts slowly died because they could not compete against the cheaper products from Britain that were flooding the Indian markets.
