Question

Why is cotton textile industry largely concentrated in Gujarat and Maharashtra? Explain any 5 reasons

Answer 1

The cotton textile industries were mainly concentrated in
the cotton growing belt of Gujarat and Maharashtra, in the early years because
-

1. The moist climate of the area helped in the growth of
cotton. So raw cotton was readily available in the area.

2. There were ports nearby 
so the manufactured goods could be easily transported.

3. There was enough labour force in the area. There were
farmers, cotton ball pluckers and workers who did the work of spinning,
weaving, dyeing, tailoring and sewing.

4. It was easy to access the markets for finished goods from
here.

5. Other supporting industries involved in manufacturing
dyes and packaging materials were available.
