• The archaeological surveys and studies have found that the people of Harrapan
civilization knew weaving and the spinning of cotton four thousand years ago.
Reference to weaving and spinning materials is found in the Vedic Literature.
There was textile trade in India during the early centuries. A block printed and
resist-dyed fabrics, whose origin is from Gujarat is found in tombs of Fostat, Egypt.
This proves that Indian export of cotton textiles to the Egypt or the Nile
Civilization in medieval times were to a large extent. Large quantity of north
Indian silk were traded through the silk route in China to the western countries.
The Indian silk were often exchanged with the western countries for their spices in
the barter system. During the late 17th and 18th century there were large export of
the Indian cotton to the western countries to meet the need of the European
industries during industrial revolution. Consequently there was development of
nationalist movement like the famous Swadeshi movement. Which was headed by
the Aurobindo Ghosh.

produced is cotton. Other fibres produced in India include silk, jute, wool, and

domestic demand and the revival of the Economic markets by 2009 has led to
huge growth of the Indian textile industry. In December 2010, the domestic cotton
price was up by 50% as compared to the December 2009 prices. The causes
behind high cotton price are due to the floods in Pakistan and China.India
projected a high production of textile (325 lakh bales for 2010 -11). There has been
increase in India's share of global textile trading to seven percent in five years. The
rising prices are the major concern of the domestic producers of the country.
