2. On account of the First World War, supplies from abroad were suspended as such there was no other alternative but to develop cotton textiles in the country.

3. The grant of protection to the industry further boosted textile manufacturing in the country.

4. Growth of population and improvement in the standard of living of the people caused a great demand for different types of textile manufacturing in India.
