Solution

The correct option is D Handicrafts
The British colonial policies in India proved most ruinous for Indian Handicrafts. The real blow to Indian handicrafts fell after 1813, when they lost not only their foreign markets but, what was of much greater importance, their market in India itself. The Industrial Revolution in Britain completely transformed Britain’s economy and its economic relations with India.
