Which of these is the small-scale industry in India? [#2483]

In India, small-scale industries (SSIs) are typically characterized by lower capital investment, localized operations, and often labor-intensive production methods. Among the given options, the Handloom Industry most closely aligns with this definition. It consists of highly decentralized units where skilled artisans manually weave fabrics, contrasting sharply with the large-scale, capital-intensive operations of the Jute, Paper, and broader Textile industries which often involve significant machinery and factory-based production. The handloom sector, despite its large overall employment, operates on a very small unit-by-unit basis.

The Moplah Rebellion of 1921 in the Malabar region of present-day Kerala was a significant uprising by the Muslim Mappila (Moplah) community, who were largely tenant farmers. The rebellion was fueled by grievances against the oppressive tenancy system under upper-caste Hindu landlords (Jenmis) and the perceived support these landlords received from the British colonial administration. Anti-colonial sentiment and the influence of the Khilafat Movement also played a crucial role in the uprising. While initially focused on agrarian issues and British authority, the rebellion unfortunately took a communal turn in some areas.
