Question:
What is the reason behind the growth of cotton textile industry in india?
Answer:
• The cotton industry is the premier industry of India. Directly or indirectly, more than 2 crore people,i.e., nearly 40% of the country's labour force depend upon this industry.
• The Deccan plateau of India has black regur soil which produces the required cotton.
• The humid climate of certain parts of India like Mumbai favour the production of yarns if finer counts. Besides, soft water for dyeing and bleaching is plentiful.
• India offers excellent financial and credit facilities for cotton.
Question:
Why weaving is decentralised in India?
Answer:
• There is inadequate supply of good quality raw material.
• Low productivity of workers who work to rule and organise frequent strikes.
• Outdated machinery and plants aren't replaced. They lead to the existence of uneconomic and inefficient units. There are 30% sick mills in India.
• There is a stiff competition from other industries.
