The text analyses the determinants of domestic demand of the textiles and challenges the general perception that the growth of the industry was primarily driven by an expansion in exports of textile products. It argues that structural changes such as inter-fibre and inter-sectoral shifts and capacity expansion involving modernisation have contributed to decline in quantity as well as quality of employment generated by the industry.
