Detailed Solution

The above statement was false.
Britain turned to India after the American Civil War started. The US cut off its supply of cotton. The price of raw cotton skyrocketed as India's exports of this material rose. Due to a lack of supplies, Indian weavers were compelled to pay high amounts for cotton. Weavers and other artisans had to deal with a new issue. India's factories started producing, releasing a wave of machine-made goods on the market.
The correct statement would be when the American Civil War broke out, cotton supplies from the US were cut off.
