Question 44 [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Jawaharlal Nehru (1889-1964) was a politician who fought for Indian independence from Great Britain and became the country's first prime minister.... The Chief business of the East India Company in its early period, the very object for which it was started, was to carry Indian manufactured goods-textiles, etc., as well as spices and the like-from the East to Europe, where there was a great demand for these articles. With the developments in industrial techniques in England a new class of industrial capitalists rose there demanding a change in this policy. The British market was to be closed to Indian products and the Indian market opened to British manufactures. The British parliament, influenced by this new class, began to take a greater interest in India and the working of the East India Company. To begin with, Indian goods were excluded from Britain by legislation, and as the company held a monopoly in the Indian export business, this exclusion influenced other foreign markets also. This was followed by vigorous attempts to restrict and crush Indian manufactures by various measures and internal duties which prevented the flow of Indian goods within the country itself. British goods meanwhile had free entry. The Indian textile industry collapsed, affecting vast numbers of weavers and artisans. The process was rapid in Bengal and Bihar; elsewhere it spread gradually with the expansion of British rule and the building of railways. It continued throughout the nineteenth century, breaking up other old industries also, shipbuilding, metalwork, glass, paper, and many crafts.....Source: Jawaharlal Nehru, The Discovery of India, John Day Company, 1946 from the NYS Global History and Geography Regents Exam, January 2006Based on this excerpt, which statement best describes the author's point of view?
