Model Answer

Weaving in India is highly decentralised, done by handloom, powerloom, and mills using traditional techniques. Because of this decentralisation, the weaving sector cannot use much of the high-quality yarn produced by the spinning mills. As a result, despite world-class spinning, the fabric produced remains of low quality.

Explanation

The key phrase from the textbook is: "India has world class production in spinning, but weaving supplies low quality of fabric as it cannot use much of the high quality yarn produced in the country." Examiners expect students to identify decentralisation of weaving as the root cause and link it directly to the inability to utilise high-quality yarn. Avoid writing about raw materials or agriculture — stay focused on this specific reason.
