Unit 6 – Industrialization's Impact (1750-1900)
Topic 6.2
How did British rule affect India's economy from the mid-18th century onwards?
It boosted India's economy by introducing modern industries and technology.
It led to the flourishing of local Indian industries due to British support and investment.
It led to a decline in traditional Indian industries such as textiles due to British economic policies favoring importation of British goods into India rather than local production.
It had no significant impact as Britain allowed India to maintain its traditional economic structure.
