Is there a potential quick win available from liberalizing the textile and apparel sector?

Milton Friedman wrote decades ago about the costs of protecting Indian handloom weavers (certain products, like saris, can't legally be made on mechanized looms) and yet these and other restrictive practices are still in place.

India's apparel exports are lower by value than Bangladesh's even though India has eight times the population, so clearly something needs to change.
