Question
Name the two sectors of the cottage textile industries. How are they different?
Solution
The cotton textile industry in India can be broadly divided into two sectors, the organized sector, and the unorganized sector. The decentralized sector includes cloth ‘ produced in handlooms (including Khadi) and power looms. The production of the organized sector has drastically fallen from 81 percent in the mid-twentieth century to only about 6 percent in 2000. At present, the power looms on the decentralized sector produce more than the handloom sector.
