Explain the commercial structure of Indian population at the time of independence. |
|
Answer» According to some economists, most of the population between the year 1881- 1951 was dependant upon agricultural activities. In 1881, almost 61 per cent was dependant upon agriculture and related tasks only, while it increased to 72 per cent by 1951. Due to this reason, it can be said that during the British era, India economy was under developed. 85 per cent of the population was directly or indirectly dependant upon agriculture only that resulted in non- development of Industrial sector. |
