4. REFUSAL OF MERCHANTS OF
TRADERS
In many places merchants and traders refused
to trade in foreign goods or finance foreign
trade. As the boycott movement spread, and
people began discarding imported clothes and
wearing only Indian ones, production of Indian
textile mills and handlooms went up.
Q19] Why did NCOM gradually slowdown in
cities and towns?
1. The movement in the cities gradually
slowed down for a variety of reasons.
Khadi cloth was often more expensive
than mass-produced mill cloth and poor
people could not afford to buy it.
