India used to make a lot of things by hand, just like how you build a LEGO tower, one piece at a time. But now, deindustrialization is happening, and it's like your LEGO tower is slowly being taken apart.
Imagine your favorite toy factory, where workers use tools and machines to make toys fast and well. That’s what happened in India before: people made things in big factories with lots of help from machines, which made life easier for everyone, just like how a robot can build a LEGO tower faster than you can!
Now, deindustrialization means those toy factories are closing down or not working as hard. It’s like your favorite LEGO builder is taking a break and letting you build the tower on your own, slowly, one piece at a time.
This happens because some countries start making things cheaper, so companies move their work there to save money. India’s factories used to be super busy, but now they’re not getting as many jobs or orders.
So, deindustrialization is like your LEGO tower becoming smaller, it still stands, but it doesn’t grow as fast anymore.
Examples
- A factory in Gujarat closes, sending workers back to rural areas.
- Children no longer learn to sew clothes at home, they use smartphones instead.
