Industrial development is closely linked to economic development, because economic development is not possible without industrial development. Industrial development is an economic and social process that not only improves our technical standards but also has a direct impact on our habits, lifestyle and environment. We can get the following benefits from industrial development:
Cottage Industry
Cottage industry refers to an industry that is run by household members with very little investment and cooperation and involves only human labour. If it is necessary to use the machine, it is done on a limited scale. The craftsman not only buys the raw materials required for this industry but also markets his own product. Some of the examples are sewing clothes in houses, making khes and daryan (mats), poultry and carpet weaving etc. Gold and silver work, wood work, pottery making, stone work, toy making, block printing and embroidery are also fall into the category of cottage industry.
