on how a Charaka Works The boycott was because Lancashire mass-produced textiles had destroyed the Indian handloom industry. In the early seventeenth century the Indian sub-continent was one of the world’s leading manufacturers and exporters. That was why British traders set up the East India Company. At the end of the century the fledgling Lancashire industry, started by immigrant Flemings, began to pressure for restrictions on the import of manufactured Indian textiles. In 1700 Acts were passed that prohibited the wearing of Indian silks and calicoes. By 1760 cotton goods from India had import duties on them ranging from 50-70% and by 1813 of 85%. The British East India Company was in conflict with the Lancashire manufacturers over this. Once India came under direct British rule, restrictions even on exports from India were introduced. Even with the new machinery of the 1760s, Lancashire could not hope in a free market to compete seriously with India since it could not produce as fine yarns until the invention of the Crompton’s mule in the 1780s. This ‘protection’ enabled capital investment in the Lancashire industry and led to the collapse of the Indian industry. India became de-industrialised and many urban artisans had to return to impoverished village life.This is why during the Indian Independence struggle, the spinning wheel and the handloom became symbols of freedom and students made bonfires of Lancashire cloth.

Charaka Spinning Wheel
Bonfires
of Lancashire cloth raged throughout the land. The spinning wheel and the handloom became symbols of patriotism and freedom. When the Prince of Wales arrived on a visit to Bombay on November 17th 1921, he was met by closed shops and deserted roads. The Government maintained its hard line; banning public meetings, arresting activists. By the end of 1921 50,000 members of the movement were in prison.
