The traditional handloom industry in Assam specializes in the production of:

Cotton fabrics
Muga and Pat silk
Woolen garments
Jute bags

The correct answer is: b) Muga and Pat silk.

Muga and Pat silk are two of the most famous types of silk produced in Assam. Muga silk is known for its golden luster and is considered to be one of the finest silks in the world. Pat silk is a type of twill silk that is known for its intricate patterns.

Cotton fabrics, woolen garments, and jute bags are also produced in Assam, but they are not as well-known as Muga and Pat silk.

Here is a brief description of each option:

  • Cotton fabrics are made from the fibers of the cotton plant. They are soft, breathable, and absorbent, making them ideal for clothing and other textiles.
  • Woolen garments are made from the fibers of sheep wool. They are warm, durable, and water-resistant, making them ideal for cold weather clothing.
  • Jute bags are made from the fibers of the jute plant. They are strong, durable, and biodegradable, making them ideal for carrying groceries and other items.
