Reasons for concentration of jute mills along the Hoogly river:
- West Bengal is the storehouse of jute. It produces the highest quantity of jute.
- The industry requires a lot of water which is easily available from the Hoogly river.
- Cheap labour is easily available because of migrating labour from neighbouring states of Bihar and Odisha.
- Inexpensive water transport in the river Hoogly is available.
- A large urban sector in Kolkata provides banking, insurance and loan facilities.
- Kolkata is a good harbour which can provide facilities for the export of jute products in various parts of the world.

The credit activities of the informal sector should be discouraged because:
- 85% of loans taken by the poor households in the urban areas are from informal sources.
- Informal lenders charge very high interest on their loans.
- They try to charge more and more interest on their loans.
- There are no boundaries and restrictions.
- Higher cost of borrowing means a larger part of the earnings of the borrowers is used to repay the loan.
- In certain cases, the high interest rate for borrowing can mean that the amount to be repaid is greater than the income of the borrower.
- This could lead to increasing debt and debt trap, therefore the credit activities of the informal sector should be discouraged.

Effects of the Great Depression on the Indian economy:
(i) The depression immediately affected Indian trade. India’s exports and imports recorded nearly halved between 1928
and 1934. As international prices crashed, prices in India were also plunged. Between 1928 and 1934, wheat prices in
India fell by 50 per cent.
(ii)Peasants and farmers suffered more than urban dwellers. Though agricultural prices fell sharply, the colonial
government refused to reduce revenue demands. Peasants producing for the world market were the worst hit.
(iii)Across India, peasants’ indebtedness increased. They used up their savings, mortgaged lands, and sold whatever
jewellery and precious metals they had to meet their expenses.
(iv)In these depression years, India became an exporter of precious metals, notably gold. The famous economist John
Maynard Keynes thought that Indian gold exports promoted global economic recovery.

- A challenge is a difficulty that carries within it an opportunity for progress. Once that challenge is overcome, one goes up to a higher level than before, for example take the challenge regarding making the transition to democracy and then instituting democratic government.
- This involves bringing down the existing non-democratic regime, keeping military away from controlling government and establishing sovereign and functional state.
- Once you are able to keep military away from controlling government you are able to set up democracy. The transition to democracy is successful and the next stage for expansion of democracy is ready.

Indian government has put barriers to foreign trade and foreign investments after independence because:
- It wanted to protect the producer within the country from foreign competition.
- As the industries were just coming up in 1950’s and 1960’s the competition from inputs at that stage would not have allowed these industries to come up.
- Indian allowed imports of only essential items such as machinery fertilizers, petroleum, etc.

Money acts easier to exchange for goods and services:
- A person holding money can easily exchange it for any commodity or service that he or she might want.
- Everyone prefers to receive payments in money and exchange the money for things they want.
For example: A shoemaker wants to sell shoes in the market and buy wheat. The shoemaker will first exchange shoes for money and then exchange the money for wheat. If the shoemaker had to directly exchange shoes for wheat without the use of money. He would have to look for a wheat growing farmer who not only wants to sell wheat but also wants to buy the shoe in exchange. Both the parties have to agree to sell and buy each others commodities. This process is very difficult, time consuming and unhealthy.
