Solution

The correct options are
A Shortage of cotton
B Lack of electricity supply
C Obsolete machinery
Some cotton mills have recently been shut down in Karnataka . This is because of the shortage of cotton, lack of electricity supply, and outdated or obsolete machinery. There is also stiff competition from synthetic fibres because their production costs are lower as compared to natural fibres like cotton.
