The decline of the Indian Handicrafts industry in the 19th century was attributed to multiple factors. Option 1 suggests that competition from British manufacturing industries was the sole cause of the decline. While it is true that the British industries posed significant competition to Indian handicrafts, it is important to note that this was not the only reason for the decline. Option 2 states that the disappearance of Indian Princely Courts led to the decline. While the support and patronage of the Princely Courts were crucial to the survival of the industry, it cannot be solely attributed to the decline. Option 3 suggests that the establishment of alien rule was solely responsible for the decline. While alien rule did have a detrimental impact on the industry, it was not the only factor. Therefore, the correct answer is option 4, as all of the above factors played a role in the decline of the Indian Handicrafts industry.
