Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
The industrialization of Britain was connected with the colonization of India. Britain started producing machine-made goods, which were good in quality and large in number. They then sold them at relatively lower prices than Indian products, which led to a decline in demand for Indian handmade products and increased demand for machine-made goods made in Britain. People shifted their demand from handmade goods to machine-made goods, as they got them at low prices, which brought huge losses to handmade industries. Industrialization led to colonization in India. Britain again got the chance to form its colonial areas by establishing industries that produced machine-made goods and lowered the demand for handmade goods.
The correct statement would be that the industrialization of Britain was connected with the colonization of India.
