Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
The development of the British cotton industry had a variety of effects on Indian textile producers. Indian textiles had to compete with British textiles in the European and American markets in the 19th century. Britain's extremely high duties imposed on Indian textiles made it even more difficult to export textiles to Britain. As a result, at the beginning of the nineteenth century, British cotton fabric manufacturers pushed Indian fabrics out of traditional markets in Africa, America, and Europe. Thus, the development of cotton industries in Britain affected textile producers in India in the 19th century.
